About Mary

Mary Redding is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Mississippi with 36 years of experience. She focuses on family and parenting concerns as well as anger, stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and relationship issues. Mary also helps people facing career changes, depression, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

She uses straightforward, skills-based methods in sessions. Clients work on clearer communication, managing strong emotions, and practical coping strategies. Sessions often include looking at patterns in family of origin, attachment concerns, and blended family dynamics.

Mary draws on approaches such as acceptance and commitment strategies, cognitive behavioral techniques, and attachment-based ideas. She also uses client-centered and dialectical behavior methods when they fit a person's needs. That mix is used to teach concrete skills and to help clients notice what matters most to them.

Her work includes attention to specific life events like divorce, adoption or foster care issues, aging and caregiver stress, and recovery from domestic violence or other trauma. She also supports people dealing with abandonment, codependency, communication problems, and control issues.

Practical help is a focus - improving day-to-day functioning, managing work or family demands, and setting realistic goals. Mary asks about each person’s routines and responsibilities so therapy fits into real life. To begin, the site matching tool is used to schedule an initial session and outline early goals.

BHow sessions work

How Mary uses evidence-based methods in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters and take small committed steps toward those values. It is often used when someone feels stuck or overwhelmed by painful thoughts and wants to act in line with personal priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing practical behavior changes. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and for building concrete coping skills. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early attachments shape current reactions; it can help with communication problems, trust issues, and family dynamics.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Mary will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and daily responsibilities. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress and needs change.

The practical benefit of online sessions is fitting therapy into a busy life. Confirm the current session formats before booking so you know how meetings are arranged. Online sessions can make it easier to have shorter check-ins, schedule visits around work or caregiving, or avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can use the same behavioral tools and values-based work online as they do in person, with a focus on skills that translate into everyday routines.
