About Mary
Dr. Mary Jane Preece is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing in Ohio with 20 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, self-esteem concerns, parenting stresses, grief, trauma and anger. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use day to day to reduce tension and respond differently when emotions run high.
Her work uses directly applied therapeutic approaches. She draws on client-centered methods to listen and clarify what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioral experiments. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are introduced for emotion regulation and distress tolerance when feelings escalate.
Mary Jane also integrates mindfulness and existential ideas when they fit the person’s goals. Mindfulness is offered as a set of attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus. Existential discussion helps people weigh values and choices during big life transitions or career crossroads.
Her background includes long-term clinical work with adults across life stages. That experience informs straightforward tools for coping with workplace frustration, resentment in close relationships, caregiving strain, and burnout. She emphasizes clear strategies people can try between sessions to see what helps.

How sessions work
Approaches used and how online sessions fit into care
Dr. Preece frequently draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in session. CBT focuses on spotting thoughts that worsen emotion and testing small behavioral changes to reduce reactivity. DBT introduces concrete skills for managing intense feelings, improving distress tolerance, and communicating when anger rises.She also uses client-centered listening to understand what matters most to each person. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client will decide collaboratively which methods to emphasize based on goals, day-to-day pressures, and what feels workable between sessions.
The original biography did not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people use practices learned in session where the stress actually happens, so homework and skill rehearsal align with real life.
