About Mary

Mary Keller is an LPC who focuses on helping people navigate major life changes. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strain, career shifts, and questions about life purpose. Her manner is direct and practical, aimed at helping people find clear next steps when life feels overwhelming.

Mary brings ten years of counseling experience across private practice, community settings, schools, courts, and other institutions. She holds a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and Human Services. She maintains licenses as an LPC in South Carolina and Georgia.

In sessions she draws on several approaches to fit each person’s needs. She uses client-centered methods to listen and reflect what matters most. She applies cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. She also uses narrative and motivational techniques to help people reframe their stories and find motivation for change.

People seeking help for parenting concerns, blended family issues, adoption and foster care questions, caregiver stress, or compassion fatigue often find practical tools and clearer priorities. She also addresses intimacy-related issues, ADHD, anger, and midlife transitions while supporting those coping with separation or divorce.

Her style mixes coaching and psychotherapy to rebuild possibilities and improve everyday functioning. Sessions emphasize small, achievable steps and clearer decision making.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting what matters most to a person, helping them feel heard and guiding the conversation toward their priorities. This approach is useful for people who need space to clarify values and goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. It helps people identify patterns that increase stress or anxiety and try new actions to change those patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and practical coping skills.

The therapist treats selection of an approach as a collaborative process. She will work with each person to test methods and see what fits best with their needs, goals, and preferences. Adjustments are made over time so the work stays relevant and useful.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter or more frequent check-ins when helpful. If you are interested in remote sessions, confirm the specific session formats offered before booking. Many people appreciate the flexibility online work provides when juggling parenting, work, caregiving, or midlife transitions.
