About Mary
Mary Griffith is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with 15 years of clinical experience based in Mississippi. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Mary also addresses concerns such as addiction, grief, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, sleep problems, and ADHD.
She uses straightforward, evidence-informed methods and keeps sessions practical. Conversations focus on what is happening now, what the client wants to change, and small steps that fit day-to-day life. Expect clear goals, skill practice, and check-ins on progress.
Mary draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. She also includes Client-Centered and Emotionally-Focused ideas to prioritize the client’s perspective and close relational patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed.
Her caseload includes a wide range of concerns, from career and self-esteem problems to aging, caregiving stress, and neurodivergent needs such as autism and Asperger Syndrome. Mary names specific focus areas like abandonment, adoption and foster care, blended family issues, chronic illness, and kink and alternative sexual culture.

Therapeutic approaches and how online work fits
Mary commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice thoughts and choose actions that match their values. ACT is useful for anxiety, avoidance, and making clearer life choices. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a method that looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. Finding the right approach is part of the collaboration. The therapist and client will discuss goals and preferences, try methods, and adjust the plan if something is not helping. This makes sessions more useful and keeps work focused on real problems the client wants to change. The therapist’s biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm the available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so sessions can happen between classes, shifts, or commitments. Some formats use less bandwidth or do not require being on camera, which can help on low-data days or when a quick session is needed. Discuss format options during the matching and scheduling steps to pick what will work best for everyday life.Areas of expertise
