About Mary

Mary Verberne is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Louisiana with 12 years of practice. She focuses on common life problems such as depression, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, addictions, trauma and stress. Her work also covers parenting challenges, sleep problems, career concerns, and issues related to self-esteem and intimacy.

Mary uses practical talk and concrete steps in sessions. She listens for what is causing daily strain and helps people try small changes that can make a difference. Sessions often include problem-solving, skill-building, and clearer ways to communicate with others.

She draws on client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral approaches to help unpack unhelpful thinking and try alternative behaviors. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are tools she uses to increase awareness and support change. Narrative techniques can help people reframe difficult experiences and reduce their hold on current life decisions.

Mary has worked with clients facing family conflict, caregiving strain, abandonment concerns, and the emotional effects of illness and aging. She also supports people managing compassion fatigue, addiction issues, and recovery from abuse or trauma. Her approach is steady and focused on practical steps that fit everyday life.

Before booking a first session, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details. Mary works in English and practices in Louisiana as an LCSW. The intake process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first appointment.

BHow sessions work

Approaches used in online sessions and how they fit everyday life

Client-centered work focuses on listening and building a plan around a person's goals. It helps when someone needs practical support and clear choices about next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches tools to change patterns that increase anxiety or depression. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and support better sleep and focus.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Mary will work with clients to identify which methods suit their needs, goals, and preferences. She treats this as a collaborative decision and adjusts methods as progress is tracked and goals change.

The main practical benefit of online options is fitting sessions into a busy life. Online work can make it easier to schedule a shorter check-in during a break, avoid travel time, or choose a quieter setting that reduces interruptions. The profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the current session options before booking. This step helps ensure sessions fit into daily routines and responsibilities.
