Mary Ann Landry, LPCC

Mary Ann Landry is a licensed professional clinical counselor with over 30 years of experience. She uses straightforward, practical methods to help people build confidence and handle life changes. Her work often focuses on self-esteem, career concerns, depression, and relationship challenges.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helping people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Sessions are down-to-earth and focused on skills that can be used between meetings. That makes it easier to see small changes that add up over time.

Mary Ann pays attention to how family history and past relationships shape current patterns. She helps people untangle codependency, communication problems, and issues that come up during divorce or separation. She also supports clients dealing with guilt, shame, and feelings of isolation.

Money worries, life purpose, and multicultural or discrimination-related concerns are part of her practice. She works with people who struggle with obsessions, compulsions, or co-occurring problems. The aim is practical problem-solving rather than labels or long explanations.

Therapy sessions can include talking through a specific crisis or building a longer-term plan for change. Mary Ann encourages people to notice strengths and to try small experiments that fit their daily life. Her approach is steady and focused on what helps most in real situations.

How CBT and online sessions can fit your life

Mary Ann uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and the behaviors that follow. CBT focuses on practical steps people can try between sessions, which suits problems like low mood, anxiety, and repetitive thoughts or compulsions.

Her online work adapts those same methods to remote formats. She helps clients set small, manageable goals, try experiments in daily life, and review results together. The therapist and client decide collaboratively which techniques to use, and they adjust the approach as needs and goals evolve.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer sessions and when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or for short check-ins. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief reflections, check-ins between sessions, or tracking steps toward goals.

Using these options can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, manage transitional periods, or maintain momentum between appointments. The process is collaborative: the therapist helps identify the best mix of approaches based on each person’s needs and schedule.
