Counseling for Adolescents, Adults, and Families.
I am here to hold space for you and truly hear your struggle and how it may be impacting you. Stepping out and sharing your story can feel scary. I understand this and want you to know it is healthy to reach out for help. You are brave. Individuals and families can benefit from therapy for many life situations. You do not need to be in a crisis to reach out. Prevention is key. Together we will develop a plan to move forward toward peace whether the difficulty is grief, anxiety, a traumatic event, depression, life transitions or another concern.

Marriage and couples counseling will allow your relationship to grow through safe, positive communication, and relationship growth. It may encompass learning new tools that can be used inside and outside of the session.
Mary M Garcia,
LIMHP, LPC
My bachelor’s degree in Family Science has given me a solid foundation to understand family systems. In my twenty years of working with adolescents, adults and families I have utilized techniques to aid in parenting and social skills, anger management, coping and relaxation strategies and retrieval of community resources. As I continued to dive deeper in the field, I was called for continued study and knowledge to serve individuals and families in a different capacity as a counselor. I began my journey of my master’s degree at Grace University and upon its closure I completed it at the Christian University Crown College. I encourage spirituality in session based on my clients’ preferences when appropriate. As my mission continues to unfold I am ready to serve you as a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner and Licensed Professional Counselor.
