About Mary Boyle
Mary Boyle is a licensed mental health professional with thirty years of experience, holding the credentials LMHC and LPC - Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Licensed Professional Counselor. She has worked in both community mental health settings and private practice, bringing extensive experience with individuals who have serious and persistent mental illness as well as those managing depression, anxiety, interpersonal conflict, and personality disorders.
Her work blends empathy with clinical focus. She listens to symptoms and the coping strategies clients have tried, and she gathers information about current living situations and family of origin to better understand each person. Over the years she has provided couples work, though she is not currently accepting couples clients. Mary draws from multiple modalities, including interpersonal therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and solution focused therapy, and she adapts other approaches as needed to match what will best help a client in their particular circumstances.
Mary especially enjoys working with females who face low self esteem, codependency, life adjustment challenges, and relationship concerns. She notes that if someone has had suicidal thoughts with or without intent within the past year, more intensive treatment than online therapy is recommended. Mary aims for clear attendance expectations - she will wait ten minutes for a late client before asking for a reschedule, and repeated no shows or cancellations without 48 hours notice may result in reassignment. She looks forward to meeting prospective clients and beginning work to improve their life situation.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Mary Boyle
Mary Boyle works from approaches that emphasize collaboration and practical change. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client leads the pace of work while the therapist offers empathy and support. This approach can help with self esteem, life adjustments, and relationship concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try concrete strategies to change behaviors and mood. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress management, and coping with daily challenges. Psychodynamic Therapy explores patterns from relationships and family of origin to uncover how past experiences shape present difficulties, which can be useful for attachment issues, interpersonal conflict, and long-standing patterns of coping.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Mary collaborates with each client to determine which methods match their needs, goals, and personal preferences, adjusting the plan over time as progress and new concerns emerge. Licensed professionals can deliver these approaches effectively in online formats.
Online therapy offers flexibility - sessions can happen by video call, by phone, via live chat, or through text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access support from home or other convenient locations.
