About Mary

Mary Booth brings nearly three decades of experience as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York. She grew up in a family that valued faith, hard work, mutual respect, and extending kindness to others, and those early lessons shaped a lifelong commitment to helping people navigate difficult moments. Over the course of her career she has supported individuals facing anxiety, depression, loneliness, substance and alcohol challenges, codependency, obsessive-compulsive patterns, grief and loss, stress management, workplace conflicts, self-esteem concerns, communication struggles, and questions about life purpose and spirituality.

Mary practices an eclectic, client-centered approach that draws on several evidence-informed therapies, tailoring methods to each person rather than relying on a single technique. She is trained in therapies such as client-centered work, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness approaches, and motivational interviewing, using those skills to help clients set and reach meaningful goals. Clients have complimented her compassion, patience, understanding, and ability to relate in ways that support personal growth and improved functioning.

Mary combines practical strategies with a warm, respectful presence, helping people find clearer direction and greater resilience through the ups and downs of life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Mary commonly uses client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) in her work. Client-centered therapy focuses on active listening and creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where individuals can explore their values, self-worth, and life direction - it is often helpful for issues like low self-esteem, grief, and finding purpose. CBT is a skills-oriented approach that identifies how thoughts and behaviors interact and teaches practical strategies to reduce anxiety, depression, obsessions, and workplace-related stress. DBT emphasizes emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, offering tools for managing intense emotions, impulsive patterns, and challenges related to addiction or relationship conflict.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and she works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. Licensed professionals and therapists often adapt techniques over time so the plan evolves as progress is made.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it easier to fit care into busy lives and to choose the form of communication that feels most comfortable. These options support regular check-ins, flexible scheduling, and continued access to therapeutic guidance whether a person needs focused skill-building, short-term support, or longer-term work.
