Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Mary Spurlin

Mary Spurlin uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and develop practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and everyday stress. CBT focuses on changing patterns that maintain distress and building coping strategies that produce measurable improvements.

She also incorporates Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) when addressing trauma-related symptoms; EMDR helps process distressing memories by pairing focused attention with guided stimulation, making it useful for post-traumatic stress and lingering trauma responses.

Trauma-Focused Therapy is another key part of her practice, offering structured support to understand the impact of trauma, foster safety, and rebuild a sense of control and resilience. These approaches are described simply and applied based on presenting needs.

Finding the right fit is a collaborative process. Mary works together with each person to assess goals, preferences, and symptom patterns, and she tailors interventions so the chosen approach aligns with the client's needs.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - which makes it easier to fit care into busy schedules, manage mobility or caregiving constraints, and maintain continuity of support across different life circumstances.
