Mary Aubrey M.S.W. L.I.C.S.W.
I’ve been working as a therapist for 40 years in a wide variety of settings. These include college mental health, community agencies, crisis intervention and hospital based services. I have also maintained a private practice along the way. I enjoy working with a wide range of individuals of all ages and varying backgrounds and lifestyles.
I earned my M.S.W. degree in 1985 from Smith College School for Social Work. Prior to that, I was working in the field with a Masters in Counseling.
I am licensed in Massachusetts as a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker.
I work collaboratively with people, which means I’m interested in understanding as much as I can about what you’re thinking and feeling about the challenges you’re facing right now. You might be feeling stressed, anxious, angry, or confused. I want to hear about this from your point of view. Together we can set goals and discuss ways to track your progress. This is how we ensure the therapy is working for you.
I have considerable experience with anxiety and panic, depression, relationships, managing stress, addictions, eating disorders, work-related conflict, PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder), family conflict, loss and grief.
The approaches that I draw on for my therapeutic work include solution focused, cognitive behavioral, family systems and stages of change (Prochaska).
In this time of Covid-19 many of us are facing unexpected anxiety, unanticipated challenges, and/or an intensification of issues that were previously manageable. Shelter-in-place policies are an extreme disruption to routines of work, family, and social life. This is when reaching out for help is tremendously important.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Absolutely wonderful. Always makes you feel heard while also making progress.
Mary has been very patient and offers helpful guidance with how I approach life and my relationships. She is a great listener and is responsive and personable.
I'm only 2 weeks in but Mary knows her apples. She's spent extra time out of session with helpful diary's and tasks. Really enjoying her advice and I feel it will definitely make me achieve my long term goals. Thanks Mary
Mary is a great counselor. She is extremely honest and kind. I felt genuinely understood and cared for. She not only listened to me intently, but she also sent me helpful links and worksheets that allowed me to keep working on my processing and healing outside of therapy too. I knew I was thought of because she reached out to me to check up on me. I truly feel lucky that I was matched with her.
Mary is so kind and compassionate. I feel so lucky to be able to talk to her.
Mary is a wonderful and very welcoming therapist who is great at listening and is very empathetic. She's always looking to send new resources to clients and find the best ways to help, especially for people within the LGBTQIA+ community.
Mary is so friendly and warm. Her responses to my worries and feelings are so kind and supportive, and I feel cared for and listened to! Thank you!
