Welcome to Mary Reed Counseling - I hope that as you gather information here, you will find a point of connection to continue your process of growing through life’s changes and challenges.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 12 years experience in medical social work and an additional 15 years experience in individual, group, and family counseling. I studied social work and psychology while earning my Bachelor of Arts degree at Anderson University, in Anderson, Indiana. I earned my Masters of Social Work degree, with a focus in individual and family therapy, through advanced placement at Indiana University in Indianapolis, Indiana.
I enjoy reading, listening to a variety of music, walking, gardening, and hiking in the woods.
My own personal and family experiences in dealing with medical challenges have given me special compassion for helping those dealing with health concerns that can change our lives.
I believe in getting to know my clients well enough to help bring resolution of past hurts while focusing on present concerns. I offer my years of experience in helping people find strength and hope in complicated situations, such as coping with grief, medical challenges, anxiety, and depression. These are often factors that challenge our efforts to live this life in the best way possible. Ultimately, I want to help others recognize and apply strength and hope to their current situation, and to build a collection of tools for use now and in the years to come.
I see that we are all complex individuals, with emotional, relational, intellectual, physical, and spiritual aspects which combine to make us who we are. These aspects play out uniquely for each person. These are points of reference I use as I talk with clients in sorting through their concerns. Balance in each area is foundational to a person’s sense of well-being.
It is my intent to help people work hard to resolve challenges and restore relationships. I am privileged to be counseling with so many amazing and complex people. Life happens in an imperfect world, and it is an indication of personal strength for people to seek help.
Please call or text me. We will talk briefly and schedule an appointment so
we can begin our work together.
