Mary Nelsen Tamborski

Mary Nelsen Tamborski, a dedicated Marriage and Family Therapist (MA, LMFT, CPDT), believes that the path to health and well-being is defined not by life's problems but by how individuals choose to address them. She sees challenges as opportunities for personal growth and development, guiding clients to discover solutions through enhanced awareness and the exploration of possibilities they may overlook. With deep respect for the inherent health within each person, Mary recognizes how sometimes this inner wisdom can be obscured by the filters of individual thought systems. By helping clients understand and navigate their own cognitive frameworks, she empowers them to access their unique insights rather than allowing their thoughts to dictate their realities. Mary's extensive background, grounded in both formal education and the profound life lessons imparted by her mother, Dr. Jane Nelsen,—a renowned Marriage and Family Therapist and author of the Positive Discipline series—fosters a rich environment for respectful communication and solution-oriented strategies. Through a variety of therapeutic modalities, including experiential therapy, play therapy, and the Gottman Method, Mary offers support to individuals, couples, and families. Her mission is to simplify the process of seeking help, ensuring that clients feel informed and supported from the outset of their journey.
