About Mary
Dr. Mary Fawcett is a licensed professional counselor with 25 years of experience. She practices in Minnesota and brings a steady, respectful presence to sessions.
Her manner is warm and interactive, and she focuses on practical steps people can use right away. She helps with stress and anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief and loss, and struggles with self-esteem. She also supports people facing addiction, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, career transitions, and coping with life changes.
How Mary works
Additional focus areas include aging and geriatric issues, chronic illness and pain, and multicultural concerns. Her approach centers on listening first and then working together to try methods that fit each person. She uses client-centered ideas to prioritize the person's goals and experience.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to identify unhelpful thinking and try small behavior changes. Mindfulness practices are offered to reduce reactivity and build awareness, and Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons for change. Solution-Focused Therapy supports short-term goal setting and clear steps to move forward.
Mary adapts these methods to the concerns someone brings to therapy. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. People can expect practical tools, chances to reflect, and collaborative planning.
Her style aims to reduce shame and build self-compassion while addressing real-life problems.

Online support options
Approaches and online options that meet you where you are
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person's experience and priorities, with the therapist following the client's lead to support their goals and self-understanding. This approach helps when people want a respectful, nonjudgmental space to talk through difficult emotions and decisions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. It uses clear exercises and small experiments to change patterns that feed anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem, which can be useful for people who prefer concrete steps.
Mary treats the selection of approaches as a collaborative process. She will listen to your goals, try methods that fit your situation, and adjust the plan as you learn what helps. Finding the right mix is part of the work together, not a one-size-fits-all decision.
Online therapy gives practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let people send updates and reflections between sessions or use a different format for support. These options help fit therapy into a busy life and make it easier to keep momentum between appointments.
