Mary Landers , LCSW

Mary Landers is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Texas with 12 years of professional experience. As an LCSW she brings clinical training in assessment and treatment, and she focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety, navigate LGBT-related concerns, process trauma and abuse, and cope with grief, loss, and depression.

Mary approaches therapy with warmth and a nondirective stance that invites openness. She works to establish a respectful space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgment, and she partners with clients to identify goals and practical steps toward change. Her work emphasizes empowerment, helping individuals build coping skills, strengthen relationships, and regain a sense of agency after difficult experiences.

Seeking therapy can be a courageous first step, and Mary aims to support and encourage that decision. Her practice centers on collaboration and respect for each person s unique story, pace, and strengths while applying evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address the concerns that brought them to therapy.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Support

Mary Landers uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on helping people identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. These approaches teach practical coping skills for managing symptoms of stress, anxiety, and depression and help clients develop strategies for more balanced day-to-day functioning. She also applies trauma-informed methods that address the impact of past harm, support emotional regulation, and build gradual resilience and safety after difficult experiences.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative process. Mary works with each person to consider their goals, preferences, and experiences and adapts evidence-based strategies to fit what will work best for them. This collaborative stance helps ensure the work feels relevant and achievable for each client.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit care into busy lives and to access support from a distance. These flexible formats allow licensed professionals to provide ongoing, consistent care while accommodating different schedules, energy levels, and communication styles.
