About Mary

Mary Goggin is a counsellor who blends practical therapies to help people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and relationship concerns. She works in a calm, non-judgemental way and aims to help clients find clearer thinking and steadier emotions. Mary holds NCPS and draws on three years of professional experience to shape sessions around each person's needs.

Mary uses several approaches in therapy and adapts them to what matters most to the client.

Background and approach

Sessions often focus on identifying unhelpful patterns, practising small changes, and setting realistic goals. She may offer different prompts or exercises to try between meetings. She believes it helps to look at where difficult feelings begin and what keeps them going.

That can include work on grief, self-esteem, intimacy worries and coping with life changes. The therapist also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, domestic violence, divorce and separation, and other painful events. Mary pays attention to practical problems too, such as career strain, feelings of emptiness, control and commitment issues, and loneliness.

She also offers help around forgiveness, guilt and shame, and specific concerns like hearing impairment or HIV/AIDS when they affect wellbeing. Sessions are collaborative and goal-focused. Clients and Mary agree steps to try and check progress together.

Over time the aim is to build more helpful habits and a clearer sense of purpose.

Ways of working Mary names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Approach-led online therapy for trauma and everyday struggles

Mary commonly uses Trauma-Focused Therapy, which helps people address and process difficult experiences so those events have less impact on daily life. This work often involves gentle exploration of memories and learning new ways to cope with triggers.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and choosing actions that fit personal values. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thought patterns and try small experiments to change them. Both approaches are practical and aim to produce visible steps forward.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or has not worked before, then try a plan together. That collaborative method helps tailor sessions to the person's needs while adjusting as progress is reviewed.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video suits deeper conversations and face-to-face rapport. Phone can be easier when low bandwidth is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, written reflection and flexible scheduling. These options let people fit therapy around work, caregiving and daily life.
