About Mary
Dr. Mary Ann Hensley offers a warm, client-centered approach to therapy. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful space where people can talk about what matters to them. Dr. Hensley draws on 23 years of experience as an LMHC and LPC to support people through common and complex concerns.
She focuses on practical tools that help manage stress, anxiety, depression, and grief. She also addresses trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, and parenting strain. Many people come for help with relationship issues, life transitions, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related challenges.
Her work blends Client-Centered methods with elements from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. That means sessions often include calm listening, values-based goal setting, and exercises to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Trauma-Focused Therapy is used when past events need careful attention.
Dr. Hensley aims to help each person build skills they can use between sessions. She explains steps plainly and checks in about what is working. The focus is on small, realistic changes that add up over time.
She practices in Florida and communicates in English. If you are ready to start, the process asks you to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability. The Start Therapy button begins that path.
How therapy approaches guide online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and helping people set their own goals. In online sessions this can look like steady, patient conversation where the therapist follows what matters most to the client and reflects back what she hears.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and then act in line with their values. It often uses short exercises and values-based planning that translate well to remote sessions when needed.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It commonly includes simple homework tasks and skill practice between meetings to reinforce change.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Dr. Hensley will listen to your concerns, discuss options, and collaborate on which methods fit your goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as needs evolve.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find remote sessions helpful for consistent progress while balancing everyday responsibilities.
