About Mary

Mary Archibald is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with a PhD in Psychology and 31 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping individuals and families navigate trauma, grief, and the everyday stressors that can disrupt daily life, and she has a long history of supporting the military community and their families through transitions. Mary works with adults, adolescents, couples, and families, offering personalized care that integrates Cognitive Behavioral techniques, Motivational Interviewing, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to address anxiety, postpartum depression, self-esteem concerns, and trauma.

As a faith-based clinician, she invites clients who wish to do so to incorporate their spiritual beliefs into therapy while maintaining a professional therapeutic framework. Mary emphasizes walking alongside clients through difficult moments, providing steady, compassionate support as they move toward goals of healing, resilience, and more fulfilling relationships. Her approach is collaborative and tailored to each person, helping clients develop practical tools for coping, managing relationships, and navigating life changes.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages acceptance of difficult thoughts while clarifying personal values and taking committed action toward a meaningful life. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions where finding direction matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem; it is practical and skills oriented. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused approach that helps the brain process distressing memories so they have less emotional impact, which can be helpful for people with a history of trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Mary collaborates with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She uses a client-centered stance to tailor treatment and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds. Licensed professionals and therapists can deliver these approaches through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules and for clients who prefer remote care. Online sessions can make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit therapy into everyday life, and access support from wherever the client is located within the therapist's service area.
