01About Mary
Mary Radaker is a licensed professional counselor in Pennsylvania with 18 years of experience. She focuses on practical help for people coping with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, and depression. Mary aims to make the first step feel manageable and worth the effort.
Mary creates a calm space where people can talk through hard feelings without judgment. Sessions are meant to be straightforward and focused on what matters most to the client.
Background and approach
She listens first, then helps find steps that fit each person’s life. Her background includes long experience guiding people through painful events and compulsive behaviors. She blends approaches so work in therapy can include learning new coping skills, processing past hurts, and improving everyday communication.
The pace is set by the client and adjusted as needs change. Mary supports people who want clear tools for mood and worry, and who also need help after trauma or when dealing with addictive patterns. She uses compassionate curiosity to understand each person’s story.
Progress is framed as small, concrete changes that add up over time. For someone nervous about starting, Mary aims to reduce pressure and focus on one issue at a time. The goal is a steadier routine, fewer crisis moments, and a clearer sense of what matters next.
She helps people track small wins and build on them.

04Online support
Approaches that guide online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. It helps build trust and lets clients set the goals for their work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical ways to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, panic, and mood problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds skill training for intense emotions and impulsivity, with techniques for distress tolerance and better emotional regulation.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Mary will discuss goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit the issue at hand, adjusting plans as progress is made. Clients and therapist work together to try strategies and decide what feels most helpful.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief updates, homework, or when someone prefers typing over speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while using the approaches above to address stress, trauma, addictions, and mood concerns.
