About Mary
Dr. Mary Fields helps people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or burned out. She meets people where they are and focuses on practical steps to reduce anger, stress, anxiety, and low mood.
Her tone is warm and direct, and she aims to make the first session feel manageable for a worried parent reading on a phone. Dr. Fields uses a blend of approaches and adapts them to each person's needs.
Background and approach
She leans on methods that help identify unhelpful thinking and build new coping skills. Sessions often include straightforward tools people can use between meetings to calm intense feelings and handle hard moments more easily. Her background includes practice as a psychologist with licensure in Colorado and North Carolina listed as CO Psychologist PSY.0006894 and NC Psychologist 5755.
She has three years of professional experience and has worked with people dealing with trauma, relationship strain, parenting stress, mood and anxiety challenges, ADHD, and anger concerns. In conversation she aims to be reflective and interactive, listening first and offering clear strategies next.
The pace of work is set collaboratively, with attention to immediate goals and longer term patterns that affect daily life. Outside of clinical work she spends time outdoors, watches thrillers, and enjoys family life with her husband, three children, and a playful cat. That grounded, everyday side of her life informs a straightforward approach in sessions.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and trying small behavior changes. It helps with anger, anxiety, depression, and stress by giving concrete skills to test and change responses. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm. It is useful for people who want tools to steady intense emotions and improve sleep and focus.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your needs and preferences. Together you will check what helps, adjust techniques, and build a plan that feels practical for daily life.
Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and skills practice. Phone sessions can be a shorter option when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat or messaging is useful for brief updates, coaching-style support, or when writing feels easier than talking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around family life, work, and other commitments while keeping the focus on steady progress.
