Mary Keane, LICSW

Mary Keane is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) based in the District of Columbia who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions. With a practical, empathetic approach, she focuses on helping clients identify obstacles and develop workable strategies to move forward. Her practice emphasizes evidence-based techniques tailored to each person’s needs and circumstances.

Mary understands that taking the first step toward therapy can feel daunting or easy to postpone when life gets busy. She encourages prospective clients to consider how dedicating time to understand themselves and their goals can create meaningful change. Telehealth options are available to reduce scheduling barriers and make it easier to connect when in-person visits are not convenient.

Mary invites anyone interested to review her background and reach out to arrange an initial meeting. She aims to create a collaborative space where people can explore their concerns, build coping skills, and work toward clearer direction and relief. Mary looks forward to meeting individuals who are ready to take a step toward growth and healing.

Evidence-Based Approaches for Remote Support

Mary Keane draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skill building and meaningful insight. One approach emphasizes skills-based strategies to manage stress and anxiety - teaching tools for emotion regulation, relaxation, and coping that can be practiced between sessions. Another focus is relationship-centered work that explores patterns in communication and attachment to improve connections and resolve recurring conflicts. A third area of support addresses grief and life transitions with structured guidance to help people process loss and adapt to change.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Mary works collaboratively with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful; together they tailor a plan that may combine skill practice, reflective exploration, and practical problem solving.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people balancing busy schedules or limited travel options. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging enable regular contact, continuity of care, and convenient access to a licensed professional from home or work, supporting consistent progress over time.
