Under The Fig Tree Christian Counseling Mediation

Under The Fig Tree Christian Counseling Mediation is helmed by an experienced and devoted clinical social worker and therapist, Mary. With over 35 years of training under guided prayer and direction by Church clergy, Mary brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to her practice. She is well-versed in various modalities of psychotherapy, including EMDR, Brainspotting, and CBT, and is certified in desensitizing trauma and anxiety. Her deep understanding of Theology informs her unique therapeutic approach, which aims to heal the mind, body, and soul from a spiritual and biblical perspective. Mary has authored group therapy curricula focused on grief, addiction, and hoarding, and is authorized to mediate divorce and custody agreements. The ideal client for her practice is someone eager for change and healing. Mary’s commitment to her clients is reflected in her use of evidence-based trauma therapies, offering help with trauma, PTSD, addiction, and various unresolved life events across all ages. She also integrates pet therapy and offers mediation services when requested. A guiding principle of Mary’s practice is her belief that 'Faith is neither earned nor learned. Grace builds on nature, healing comes from within us, and the mind desires healing by equilibrium.' Through her compassionate and knowledgeable approach, Mary meets individuals at the juncture of mental health and spiritual balance, fostering both peace and true healing.
