01About Mary
Mary Beth Adams is a Licensed Professional Counselor who offers straightforward, faith-aware care for adults. She focuses on practical steps people can use to reduce anxiety, manage stress, and cope with life changes. Sessions emphasize clear goals and tools that can be used between meetings.
Mary Beth draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness practices, and client-centered conversation to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes. She often blends emotional awareness work with concrete skill building to strengthen coping and day-to-day functioning.
Background and approach
She also weaves in spiritual or faith concerns when a client wants that as part of care. With ten years of experience, she has supported people working through depression, trauma and abuse, substance concerns, grief, and relationship struggles. She also helps with attention challenges, sleep problems, career transitions, caregiver stress, and chronic illness adjustments.
Sessions aim to be practical and compassionate so clients can make steady progress. Therapy begins with a chance to tell the story and set clear, manageable goals. From there, Mary Beth and the client collaborate on a plan that may include thought records, behavioral activation, emotion-focused conversations, or mindfulness exercises.
The pace and focus change to fit what each person needs. She offers remote sessions from South Carolina for adults 18 and up. People who want faith-informed work can include spiritual themes alongside evidence-based techniques.
The emphasis is on listening, realistic tools, and steady forward movement.

04Online support
How therapeutic methods translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions where shifting focus to meaningful action reduces getting stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches simple tools like thought records and behavioral activation to change patterns that keep mood and worry high. It is practical for depression, sleep difficulties, and attention-related problems. Client-Centered Therapy creates a respectful space where the person leads the conversation while the therapist listens and reflects to foster clarity and self-direction.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mary Beth will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their goals, beliefs, and daily life. That choice can shift as progress is made, and she checks in regularly to make sure sessions stay useful and relevant.
Online therapy lets people use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging in ways that match real-life needs. Video is good for a fuller conversational session. Phone calls can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is a concern. Live chat and text messaging allow brief check-ins, homework support, or shorter sessions during a busy day. These options create flexibility so therapy can fit work, caregiving, or health limitations while still focusing on meaningful changes.
