About Mary
Mary Pirant is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor who helps people manage anger and related concerns. She supports those dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and relationship or intimacy challenges. Mary encourages clients to take the first step toward change and to name the reasons they want different outcomes.
Her approach is straightforward and practical. She creates a nonjudgmental space where people can talk through feelings and thoughts. Sessions focus on identifying patterns, setting small goals, and practicing skills between meetings.
Background and approach
Mary brings 15 years of clinical experience to her work. That background includes helping people cope with trauma, compassion fatigue, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and obsessive-compulsive concerns. She also works with clients facing career strain, parenting stress, first responder issues, and infidelity-related distress.
In sessions she emphasizes collaboration and responsibility. Clients and Mary map out clear steps, then track progress together. The work often involves learning new ways to react in tense moments and building routines that reduce overwhelm.
Practical support is a consistent theme in her practice. People leave sessions with specific tools they can try right away. Mary also frames therapy as a process that requires honest effort and steady practice to get results.

Evidence-based approaches and online care
Mary uses evidence-based techniques that focus on helping people change reactions and build new habits. One common approach helps clients identify triggers, notice physical signs of anger, and practice step-by-step coping strategies to reduce outbursts and stress. Another approach focuses on skills training for emotional regulation and problem solving, teaching concrete tools to manage anxiety, impulsive behaviors, and compulsions.Finding the right mix of techniques is a team effort. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. Sessions begin with goal-setting and a plan, and methods are adjusted based on what is most helpful for the client.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to get support. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations, while phone sessions can be easier when video is not possible. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, coping reminders, and short coaching between live sessions. These options make it easier to fit work on anger, stress, or addiction into a busy schedule.
