About Mary

Mary Jackson-Webb is a licensed clinical social worker who uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and trauma. She brings 35 years of clinical experience and a steady, practical approach to sessions. Her work is grounded in respect for each person’s identity and life story.

She focuses on concrete skills that make daily life easier, like coping tools for strong emotions and clearer communication strategies.

Background and approach

Mary pays attention to relationship patterns and parenting concerns where they come up. She also addresses grief, anger, self-esteem, career stress, and mood challenges such as bipolar symptoms. Her practice includes a broad set of additional focus areas.

These include abandonment issues, avoidant and dependent personality patterns, codependency, blended family difficulties, and divorce or separation. She also works with body image, chronic illness and pain, caregiver stress, dissociation, and coping after disasters. Mary describes treatment in plain terms and aims to make therapy understandable and useful.

She helps people build coping strategies, regain confidence, and make practical plans for change. Sessions emphasize collaboration and real-world steps rather than jargon. Based in Colorado, Mary is licensed as an LCSW and also holds a CSW credential.

She offers live and text-based formats to fit different schedules and preferences. The initial steps involve a short matching process and scheduling that fits each person’s availability.

Evidence-based approaches and online flexibility

Mary uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. Cognitive-behavioral approaches help people identify unhelpful thoughts and habits, then replace them with more useful responses for anxiety, depression, and stress. Trauma-informed methods address the effects of past harm through pacing, grounding skills, and rebuilding a sense of safety and control.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, preferences, and life situation. Sessions often blend methods over time so the plan fits what actually helps.

Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules, handle short check-ins, or use written tools between sessions. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to work well in whichever online format someone prefers.
