About Mary
Mary Guillory is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Texas with five years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, anger, career questions, bipolar challenges, coping with life changes, and ADHD.
She asks clients to be open about their experiences and behavior so they can identify what is getting in the way of feeling better. Sessions focus on noticing thoughts, feelings, and patterns that maintain problems. Practical steps and small experiments are used to test new ways of responding.
Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside attachment-based and client-centered ideas. That means sessions mix clear, structured work with attention to how relationships and values matter. Skills may include noticing unhelpful thinking, grounding techniques, and learning different ways to handle strong emotions.
Mary aims to build a steady working relationship so people feel able to try changes over time. She encourages short, achievable steps between sessions and checks what is or isn’t helpful. Progress is tracked with concrete goals rather than vague promises.
People who prefer straightforward, skills-based sessions with space to talk about relational patterns often find this style useful. Before a first session she asks people to complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule a time to begin work together.
How CBT, ACT and Attachment work in online sessions
CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and testing alternatives. It uses clear steps, worksheets, and short experiments to change patterns that keep problems going, and it is often used for anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related struggles.ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) helps people clarify what matters to them and take actions consistent with those values even when difficult feelings are present. It mixes practical exercises with attention to acceptance and committed action to support coping with life changes and chronic problems.
Attachment-based ideas look at how early and current relationships shape feelings and reactions. In session this can mean talking through relationship patterns and practicing new ways of relating to others and to oneself.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Mary will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That process includes trying different techniques and adjusting what isn’t working.
Confirm the current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time from a schedule. Licensed professionals commonly use these practical benefits to help people sustain consistent work between sessions.
