About Mary
Mary Mayle is an Ohio LISW (Licensed Independent Social Worker) with 18 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, addictions, and life transitions. Her practice also addresses issues like self-esteem, trauma and abuse, intimacy concerns, and compassion fatigue.
Mary uses straightforward conversations to help people notice what gets in the way of living day to day. She listens without judgment and helps turn feelings and memories into practical next steps. Sessions focus on small, doable changes clients can try between meetings.
Her background includes approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness techniques, emotionally-focused work, hypnotherapy, and motivational interviewing. She draws on these methods to help people reduce distressing thoughts, strengthen emotional connection in relationships, and build more helpful coping habits.
Mary has worked with people from diverse ethnic and religious backgrounds and with a wide range of health needs. She often supports those dealing with chronic pain, caregiver stress, body image concerns, commitment and control issues, and attachment-related difficulties. Her experience includes helping people cope with serious medical issues such as cancer and age-related challenges.
In sessions she aims to make options clear and practical. New clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first meeting. Mary’s approach is direct and collaborative, focusing on what the client wants to change and the steps that can make daily life more manageable.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person, helping them feel heard and clarifying goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and introduces practical exercises to test and change them. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotional patterns within relationships and helps people notice and shift how they respond to strong feelings.Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped in the past, then try approaches that match those needs. That plan can be adjusted as sessions proceed to find what fits best.
Practical benefits of doing therapy online can include easier scheduling, fitting sessions around work or caregiving, and using shorter check-ins when needed. The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make regular work on thoughts, emotions, and relationships more manageable within everyday life.
