Mary Beth has been a huge help for me in the time I have been seeing her. She gives me detailed individual care by giving me practical exercises I can do in my everyday life, showing me that she really cares to see me get better. -A.K., Kittery, ME
When I started working with Mary Beth, she was willing and eager to learn about a condition I have that was new to her. She certainly believes that the person receiving therapy knows best about themselves. She is open minded and validates the difficulties I am facing. -J.D., Portsmouth, NH
Mary Beth came into my life at a critical point -- when my husband was facing depression and anxiety, and I just couldn't cope. She was very helpful, even inventive. When he balked at office visits, she took him for talk-walks, which he loved and looked forward to, constantly consulting the calendar: "Is it today?... Do I see Mary Beth today?" - S.L., Portsmouth, NH
For a few years I thought about going to see a therapist, but was hesitant to actually do so. I was struggling with a few things, the most difficult being dealing with a brother who has paranoid schizophrenia. I found Mary Beth and was instantly comfortable with her and able to open up and talk about what was happening in my life. She has helped me not only to deal better with my brother’s illness, but to understand it and set examples for other family members on how to set boundaries with letting this illness take over our lives and not letting my brother’s behavior consume us. Before seeing her I had no idea the weight I was carrying around on my shoulders from this situation and now can deal with it so much better. When things get bad I can now sleep at night and do not let it control my life. My time with Mary Beth has helped me in so many ways and I tell my family all the time that finding her and going to my appointments is really the best thing I ever did for myself! - D.N., Hampton, NH
Therapy with Mary Beth has helped me understand myself and the other people in my life better. Along with that, it has helped me become a better problem-solver with issues I'm faced with. - C.S., age 17, Durham, NH
