About Mary

Mary Landers is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, licensed in Texas with 12 years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, LGBT-related concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. Mary speaks English and works from a practical, problem-solving perspective.

Mary helps people name what feels most urgent and then breaks concerns into manageable steps. She listens for patterns that worsen stress or anxiety and offers ways to change day-to-day routines. Sessions are straightforward and focused on what a person can try between meetings.

Her background includes a decade-plus of clinical work supporting people after loss and those managing trauma. Mary also addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment struggles, caregiving strain, chronic illness and pain, body image, and communication difficulties. She draws on approaches that have evidence behind them to guide conversations and tasks.

In sessions Mary pays attention to practical obstacles - work hours, energy, family demands - and adapts plans accordingly. She helps people rehearse conversations, set boundaries, and problem-solve logistics that get in the way of change. The goal is clearer thinking and more manageable next steps rather than abstract insight alone.

To begin a working relationship, people use the site matching process, complete a short questionnaire, and schedule a first session. Cost varies with location and uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

BHow sessions work

How evidence-based approaches translate to online sessions

Mary uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to structure work. Cognitive-style approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new ways of interpreting situations; these methods are useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Trauma-informed practices prioritize stabilizing attention, managing strong emotions, and creating small, doable steps toward coping after abuse or loss.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mary will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, day-to-day demands, and comfort with different exercises. She checks in and adjusts the plan as needs change so therapy stays practical and relevant.

The original biography did not list specific session formats. Confirm the available online session options before booking so they fit your schedule and technology. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments around work, medical care, or caregiving by removing commute time and allowing shorter check-ins when helpful. They can also be useful when someone prefers not to use video, needs lower bandwidth, or has limited time between other responsibilities.
