Meet The Therapist!
The Full Story
Meet Mary (They/She)!
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor Associate (LMHCA) under the supervision of Jess Minckley (LMHC, MFA, ATR-BC, PhDc).
I am a proud Queer therapist who is passionate about supporting the Queer community. I have experience in supporting individuals who are navigating their identity as transgender, gender neutral or gender fluid. I am opposed to fascism, racism, homophobia, transphobia, ageism, and fatphobia, and I bring that commitment into the room with me. I always show up human first, and I hope you feel safe to also do so! I believe the relationship between clients and their therapists are the center of healing, and that is why I invite you alongside myself to show up authentically you.
I am passionate about nerd culture outside and inside of the therapy space. I am an avid romantasy, fantasy, and murder mystery book reader. I love TV shows and movies as a piece of comfort and a form of expression.
I am someone who has lived experience with the struggle of accepting the body I was born into. My approach to therapy often includes discussions of self-acceptance and self-love. I believe in the journey of rediscovering the connection to loving your body and who you are as something that is entirely transformative. As a fat-positive individual, you can find safety in our sessions discussing topics of body image as it relates to you and as someone who lives in a society that values thinness.
