Mary Cook

I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help clients better understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. CBT helps clients identify and change unhelpful thought patterns, while DBT focuses on emotional regulation, mindfulness, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness.

Together, we will explore the thoughts, emotions, and experiences that may be contributing to your current challenges while building practical tools to support growth and healing. My goal is to help you gain greater confidence, resilience, and self-understanding as you move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.

My clients describe me as warm, nonjudgmental, and easy to talk to. They appreciate my ability to truly listen, understand their experiences, and provide both compassionate support and practical tools for change. Many say they feel safe, heard, and encouraged in our work together.

I specialize in working with teenagers, young adults, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, emotional regulation difficulties, relationship challenges, stress, grief, and life transitions. I also provide premarital counseling for couples seeking to strengthen communication and deepen emotional connection.

I became a therapist because I believe everyone deserves a safe, supportive space to feel heard, understood, and empowered. I am passionate about helping people navigate challenges, discover their strengths, and create meaningful, lasting change in their lives and relationships.

I specialize in counseling teens, individuals, and premarital couples. My approach is warm, collaborative, and evidence-based, helping clients navigate anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, and personal growth. I strive to create a space where you feel safe, supported, and empowered to make meaningful, lasting changes.
