About Mary

Mary Mayle is a licensed independent social worker with 18 years of experience helping people who feel stuck by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, or relationship trouble. She works with individuals to talk through their stories and find practical steps that fit daily life.

Mary aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can say what’s on their mind and begin to make changes. Mary’s background blends talking therapies with guided approaches.

Background and approach

She draws on client-centered methods to follow what each person brings, and uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot patterns and try small, doable shifts. Hypnotherapy and guided imagery are part of her toolbox for people who respond well to relaxed, focused work on habits and emotional material. Sessions are conversational and down-to-earth.

Mary listens first, helps name what’s causing distress, and works with each person to set clear, achievable goals. She mixes short practical exercises with breathing and mindfulness skills so people have tools to use between sessions. Many clients turn to her for help with life transitions, career stress, caregiving strain, and issues tied to trauma or addiction.

She also addresses concerns like body image, codependency, abandonment, and intimacy-related problems. Mary aims to make therapy useful for daily life rather than only about insight. Mary practices in Ohio as an OH LISW.

She offers a variety of session formats to fit different schedules and needs. People who want a collaborative, steady approach that blends talk therapy with experiential techniques may find her style a good match.

Approaches Mary names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist lists and does not check training records.

Online support

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Mary uses a mix of client-centered work, cognitive behavioral strategies, and hypnotherapy-style guided imagery in her sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following each person's concerns so goals come from the client. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and tests small behavior changes to see what helps. Hypnotherapy and guided imagery involve relaxed, focused exercises that can help with cravings, stress, or emotional processing when a person responds well to that style.

Choosing a method is collaborative. Mary will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then try an approach or blend of approaches that seems likely to fit. She adjusts work over time based on how someone responds and what practical changes they want to make.

Online formats let people use these methods without commuting. Video calls allow conversational work and guided imagery with visual and verbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework prompts, and ongoing support between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy or changing schedules.
