About Mary
Mary Cole is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 15 years of clinical experience. She offers a calm, patient-centered space where people can talk about strong emotions and learn ways to respond differently. Her approach aims to help people feel more steady and confident in daily life.
Mary connects practical skills with self-understanding. She teaches emotional regulation techniques to reduce intense reactions and ways to rethink unhelpful thoughts that feed anxiety or low self-worth.
Background and approach
Mindfulness and grounding practices are part of sessions to bring down stress in the moment. She also helps people notice and change recurring relationship patterns. That work includes setting boundaries, managing avoidant or anxious attachment tendencies, and addressing communication problems that cause ongoing conflict.
Mary supports people working through grief, trauma, workplace strain, and life transitions. Therapy is conversational and collaborative rather than didactic. Sessions mix short-term skills training with deeper reflection on values and goals.
Motivational interviewing helps when people feel stuck or unsure about next steps. People who seek Mary’s help often want concrete tools plus a steady guide. She focuses on building resilience, reducing impulsivity and anger, and improving self-esteem.
Her style is warm, interactive, and focused on practical changes that make daily life easier.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small, meaningful steps toward those values. It focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and still moving forward with action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete strategies to change patterns that maintain anxiety or low mood. Mindfulness Therapy trains simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and bring awareness to the present moment.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Mary works collaboratively to match techniques to each person’s needs and goals. She listens to what is working and adapts sessions over time so the plan fits the client’s life and preferences.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people see and interact in real time for longer, deeper sessions. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for quick check-ins, brief coping coaching, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, parenting, or busy schedules while still using ACT, CBT, and mindfulness tools.
