About Mary
Mary Keever is a licensed clinical social worker with eight years of experience. She centers sessions on each person's goals and practical needs. Mary aims to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and parenting concerns in straightforward ways.
She uses clear, evidence-informed methods and treats the person in front of her as the expert on their life. Sessions focus on what the client wants to change and on small, doable steps that make daily life easier.
Background and approach
Mary also combines coaching-style goal work when helpful to support health and routines. Much of her experience has been supporting people with anxiety, depression, and reactions to past trauma. She believes the past can shape present struggles but that steady, practical work can ease symptoms and restore functioning.
Expectations are discussed openly so clients know what to try and why. As a health coach alongside clinical practice, Mary helps people turn motivation into action. That can mean setting realistic health goals, following through on treatment plans from other providers, or building routines that reduce stress.
Coaching work is practical and focused on clear next steps. Mary practices from North Carolina as an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker. She offers sessions that aim to be respectful and collaborative.
The focus is on helping each person find workable solutions and move toward better balance and well-being.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Mary commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on the person in the room and on building a trusting, respectful relationship. This approach helps when someone needs time to tell their story and wants the therapist to follow their lead.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a skills-based approach that looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and many parenting stressors because it targets small changes that lead to big improvements.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Mary will talk with each client about goals, concerns, and preferences and then try approaches that match those needs. Together they monitor what helps and adjust plans as needed so the work stays practical and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video calls let people work face to face when that is helpful. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a hands-free option is needed. Live chat and messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, quick skill practice, or when typing feels easier than talking. These options make it possible to fit therapy into busy family schedules or work days.
