About Mary

LCSW in New York with 11 years of experience, Mary Stone focuses on trauma and abuse, career issues, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related concentration concerns. She practices client-centered care and draws on DBT, EMDR, motivational interviewing, and narrative and solution-focused approaches to support practical change.

Mary describes clients as the experts in their own stories and works from that starting point. Sessions are aimed at identifying strengths and practical steps clients can use between meetings. She uses straightforward conversation to clarify goals and reduce overwhelm.

Her work with trauma often combines EMDR techniques with grounding skills and DBT strategies to manage intense emotions. For career or workplace concerns she helps people map options, clarify values, and build doable plans. When compassion fatigue is present she focuses on skills to reduce burnout and restore daily functioning.

With ADHD-related concentration and memory issues she emphasizes short, concrete strategies and small habit changes that fit into busy days. Narrative therapy is used to reframe unhelpful stories that make change harder. Motivational interviewing helps when someone feels stuck and uncertain about next steps.

Mary has practiced in New York for over a decade. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. To begin she asks prospective clients to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session through the online options button.

How her approaches work in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. It helps people clarify goals and identify what they already do well. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. It’s useful for stress that feels overwhelming and for building daily routines. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) involves focused processing of traumatic memories alongside guided bilateral stimulation to reduce the memory’s intensity; it is often used when past events continue to cause strong reactions.

Mary treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will discuss these methods with the client and try to match techniques to the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. Decisions about which methods to use come from regular check-ins and adjustments during care.

The original biography does not specify which remote session formats are offered. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know whether video, phone, or other formats are available. Online sessions can make scheduling easier, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and help fit therapy into a workday or busy routine. Licensed professionals can use these formats to work through trauma processing, skills practice, career planning, and ADHD strategy building without requiring travel.
