Mary Christian, LICSW

My approach is person centered with a strong emphasis on how the past and present are intermixed. Past and present experiences have an impact on our daily functioning, coloring our view both positively and negatively. Unresolved grief and negative experiences can impact an individual years after the event. By addressing these issues in therapy, individuals can reclaim their decision-making power and make choices out of fullness rather than as a reaction to internal strife. Learning to acknowledge strengths enhances the sense of purpose and helps to redefine oneself. Helping people move from victim to empowered survivors, is what I am passionate about.

Using therapeutic skills to identify feelings, thoughts and beliefs, helps to increase self-awareness. The Client sets the pace as unresolved areas of pain are recognized and named. Specific techniques are offered to aid in emotional resolution. This process reduces symptoms allowing the individual to regain a sense of control.

Mary is currently accepting new tele-health clients through Spring Health EAP at this time.

Mary practices as an independent contractor with Restorative Wellness Counseling and operates as a separate legal entity. While providing services through our clinic, Mary maintains full professional responsibility for her clinical work and the care of her clients.
