About Mary
Mary Kent is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, depression, coping with life changes, and ADHD. Mary also addresses concerns like attachment and communication problems, control issues, divorce and separation, and young adult issues.
Her sessions are conversational and straightforward. She pays attention to how emotions show up in the body and helps people notice physical signals tied to feelings. Sessions aim to build simple tools for managing tension and anxiety. People can expect practical steps as well as space to talk things through.
Mary uses a somatic and client-centered way of working. That means she highlights bodily awareness alongside talking through thoughts and emotions. This approach can help when stress feels stuck in the body or when emotions seem hard to name.
In early meetings she focuses on listening and setting goals together. Those first sessions identify patterns and immediate coping techniques. From there she and the client choose steps that fit daily life and current pressures like work, school, or relationship strain.
She understands issues common to young adults - leaving home, starting careers, relationship shifts, and feeling behind. Mary aims to help people build steadier routines and clearer communication so they can move forward with less overwhelm.
Approaches for body-aware and practical therapy online
Mary’s work highlights somatic awareness and a client-centered approach. Somatic awareness focuses on how feelings show up in the body and teaches simple practices to notice and release tension. This can help when anxiety or stress feels physically intense rather than just mental.A client-centered stance means sessions prioritize the person’s experience and goals. Conversations focus on what matters most to the client, and practical coping tools are developed together to address day-to-day problems like managing work stress or relationship conflict.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person’s needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean combining body-based exercises with talk-based strategies and adjusting methods over time based on what helps.
