About Mary
LPCC in New Mexico with 27 years of experience, Mary Ringer focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, grief, sleeping problems, and LGBT issues. She talks plainly with clients and helps them sort through what matters now. Mary uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and practical conversation to address daily struggles.
Mary organizes sessions around clear goals and simple tools. She and the person seeking help look at patterns of thought and behavior together. Then they try small changes that can reduce anxiety, improve sleep, or ease grief reactions.
She also supports people dealing with aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, communication problems, guilt and shame, and isolation or loneliness. When relationships are strained she helps people identify communication habits that add tension and practices to change them.
Mary keeps explanations direct and concrete. Sessions often include thinking about recent situations, testing new responses, and tracking what works. The focus is on skills that can be used between meetings to carry progress into daily life.
She works with women’s issues and questions about life purpose and social anxiety or phobia. If someone is unsure whether CBT fits their concern, Mary will discuss options and next steps during an initial conversation.

CBT-based approaches and remote sessions

It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and social anxiety by focusing on practical steps that change day-to-day patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mary will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels useful, then adjust methods as needed. She treats the selection of tools as a collaborative process rather than a fixed prescription.
Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow a shorter check-in during work breaks, and reduce time spent traveling. Many people find remote sessions help them keep appointments and practice skills in everyday settings. Mary will talk about what format makes the most sense for each person's routines and goals.
