About Mary
Mary Dellinger is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with 10 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are managing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, mood issues, relationship concerns, and life changes. Sessions are offered in English and her work covers a broad set of challenges including grief, trauma and abuse, ADHD, addictions, and concerns related to intimacy and self-esteem.
Mary uses a mix of well-established approaches rather than a single method. She draws on client-centered ideas to keep sessions focused on the person's priorities. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new behaviors in everyday life.
Mindfulness-based practices are part of her toolbox to help slow reactive moments and increase awareness of bodily signals. Psychodynamic ideas are used to look at past patterns that keep repeating and get in the way of current goals. Mary adapts what she uses to fit each person's situation rather than following one fixed plan.
In practical terms, sessions tend to focus on clear goals and doable steps. People can expect direct conversation about triggers, patterns, and coping strategies. Work may include short skills practice, reflection on relationship patterns, and problem solving for work or parenting stress.
Her background includes a decade of working with diverse people across many concerns. That experience informs a pragmatic approach that balances symptom-focused tools with attention to deeper patterns. To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Mary commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based work in session. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors, which fits well with goal-focused online conversations and short between-session practice. Mindfulness therapy helps people notice physical and emotional reactions and build simple breathing and attention skills that can be practiced during the week.She also uses client-centered methods to keep the work aligned with each person's priorities. Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative. The therapist and client review goals and try methods that match the client's needs, preferences, and day-to-day life.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. It can also support steady practice of skills such as mindfulness or behavioral experiments between sessions, which helps turn in-session learning into daily habits.
