About Mary
Mary Guillory is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, addiction, grief, relationship strain, and life transitions. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.
Mary values straightforward talk. She asks people to describe what they notice about their thoughts and behavior. That helps make practical steps clearer. She focuses on concrete patterns rather than abstract labels.
Her approach draws on several established methods, including cognitive behavioral techniques and client-centered work. That means she helps people recognize unhelpful thinking, try small behavioral changes, and reflect on how relationships shape feelings. She also uses ideas from attachment-based work to look at how early connections affect current reactions.
For anger and stress she uses skills-based strategies alongside conversation. Clients can expect exercises to practice outside sessions. The focus is on measurable changes such as fewer heated responses, clearer communication, and better coping at work or home.
Mary frames the process as a partnership. She listens first, then suggests tools that fit a person's daily routine. New clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session to get started.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Mary uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking and practice concrete behavior changes. CBT is useful for anger, anxiety, depression, and stress because it breaks problems into doable steps. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is another approach she draws on; it focuses on clarifying values and learning to act despite difficult feelings. ACT can help when anger is tied to frustration about unmet goals or repeated conflicts.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Mary treats this as a collaborative process. Together they decide which exercises, skill building, or conversation fits the person's goals, needs, and day-to-day schedule. That way sessions stay practical and relevant.
The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Many clients appreciate online sessions because they can fit therapy around work, reduce travel time, or choose a shorter check-in when time is limited. Mary incorporates homework and short skill practices that are easy to use between sessions, which helps translate online conversations into changes in daily life.
