About Mary Aubrey

Mary Aubrey, M.S.W., LICSW brings four decades of clinical experience across college mental health, community agencies, crisis intervention, hospital-based services, and a long-standing private practice. She earned her Master of Social Work (M.S.W.) in 1985 from Smith College School for Social Work and is licensed in Massachusetts as a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW).

Mary works with people of all ages and diverse backgrounds, offering practical, goal-oriented care that begins with understanding each person’s perspective on the challenges they face. She approaches therapy collaboratively - listening for what a person is thinking and feeling, setting clear goals together, and tracking progress so the work stays relevant and effective.

Her clinical experience includes significant work with anxiety and panic, depression, relationship and family conflict, stress management, addictions, eating and food-related issues, work-related difficulties, PTSD, loss and grief, and related concerns. In her practice she draws on solution-focused strategies, cognitive behavioral techniques, family systems thinking, and stages-of-change concepts to tailor interventions to each individual’s needs.

Mary’s background in multiple treatment settings and her emphasis on collaboration aim to help people navigate life transitions, improve communication and relationships, manage emotional distress, and regain balance during periods of change.

Approaches That Guide Online Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to distress and then develop practical skills for changing those patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Psychodynamic therapy explores how past relationships and unconscious patterns influence current feelings and reactions, which can be helpful for understanding recurring relationship or emotional difficulties. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes clear goals and small, concrete steps toward change, making it useful for people seeking targeted progress on specific problems.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Mary works collaboratively with clients to assess their needs, goals, and preferences and to shape a treatment plan that fits those priorities. That collaborative process helps determine whether a more skills-based, insight-oriented, or brief solution-focused path is most appropriate.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and people can also use live chat or text-based messaging when that format better fits their schedule. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from home, to fit appointments around work or caregiving responsibilities, and to maintain continuity of care during life transitions or disruptions.
