About Mary

Mary Lindsey Higgins is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who brings a blend of clinical training and practical experience to support people navigating stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, mood concerns, and relationship challenges. She earned a Master of Social Work from Western Kentucky University in 2015 and holds the Kentucky LCSW license number 253593 - LCSW stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Mary Lindsey began working in the mental health field in 2009 and has provided therapy since 2015, developing experience with depression, bipolar disorders, grief, parenting concerns, and coping with life transitions.

Her practice emphasizes a client-centered approach, which means therapy is tailored to each person’s way of expressing, processing, and learning. She also uses cognitive behavioral strategies, solution-focused methods, strengths-based perspectives, and interventions inspired by dialectical behavior therapy to address behavioral patterns, substance use, trauma responses, and self-worth issues. With training in these approaches, she aims to create an authentic environment grounded in empathy, education, and empowerment so individuals can identify or clarify goals and work toward meaningful change.

Mary Lindsey also has experience addressing blended family dynamics, body image and self-love concerns, codependency, commitment issues, pregnancy and childbirth adjustments, and compassion fatigue. Her work is collaborative and individualized, designed to help people move toward greater wellbeing even when goals are still emerging.

Client-centered approaches for online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on meeting each person where they are, listening without judgment, and shaping the work around the individual’s preferences and strengths - it is well suited for those wrestling with identity, relationship, or self-esteem concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and is often used for anxiety, depression, and mood regulation. Mindfulness Therapy teaches practical attention and breathing techniques to reduce stress and improve emotional awareness, supporting coping with life changes and overwhelming feelings.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Mary Lindsey Higgins collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and learning style, adjusting techniques over time as progress and preferences become clearer. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy feels relevant and useful.

Online therapy offers flexibility to fit care into busy lives - sessions by video call or phone allow face-to-face conversation, while live chat and text-based messaging provide shorter or more frequent check-ins as needed. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals and therapists when scheduling, travel, or mobility are barriers, and they support a steady therapeutic relationship across different life circumstances.
