Dr. Mary Fields, CO Psychologist PSY.0006894, NC Psychologist 5755

Dr. Mary Fields is a clinical psychologist based in Indiana who brings an integrative, individualized approach to therapy. With three years of professional experience, she combines evidence-informed techniques and thoughtful exploration to help people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, career transitions, OCD, ADHD, trauma and grief. She also values work with Veterans and others affected by abuse and loss. She holds psychology licenses in Colorado (CO Psychologist PSY.0006894) and North Carolina (NC Psychologist 5755), indicating formal training and authorization to practice in those states.

Her therapeutic style is warm, reflective, and interactive. She treats diagnostic labels as useful tools for understanding patterns rather than fixed definitions, and she adapts interventions to match each person’s goals and circumstances. Drawing from cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, and additional modalities, she crafts treatment plans that balance practical skills, personal insight, and emotional attunement. Motivational interviewing and mindfulness techniques are used when appropriate to support change and present-moment awareness.

Dr. Fields emphasizes collaboration - she works alongside clients to set priorities, test strategies, and measure progress. Outside of her clinical work she enjoys outdoor time, suspenseful films, and family life with her husband, three children, and a cat who insists on playing fetch. She welcomes the opportunity to support those ready to take a step toward greater well-being and meaning.

Integrative Approaches for Effective Online Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. It teaches practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress, and helps clients develop strategies to respond differently to difficult situations.

Mindfulness Therapy emphasizes present-moment awareness and learning to observe thoughts and emotions without judgment. It can be helpful for reducing rumination, improving emotional regulation, and increasing tolerance for uncomfortable feelings.

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented method that supports commitment to change by exploring ambivalence and strengthening personal motivation. It pairs well with other approaches when clients are navigating major life decisions or behavior change.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. Dr. Mary Fields collaborates with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and she tailors techniques from these approaches to fit each person’s situation. This collaborative process helps determine which methods are most likely to support progress.

Online therapy with Dr. Fields offers flexibility - sessions can occur by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit care into busy schedules or to access support from different locations. These options help maintain continuity of care while accommodating varying communication styles and logistical needs.
