Welcome
If you are struggling with your emotional or physical well-being, feeling overwhelmed by daily life, or lost in your relationships or career, then talking to a psychologist may be your next step.
I’m Dr. Mary Kennedy, licensed clinical psychologist. I will help you navigate demands of partnering, parenting, education and workplace struggles, and challenging life transitions. I provide services for adults with mental health issues including depression, anxiety, ADD/ADHD, trauma, and health changes. I also provide consultation and care for professional caregivers.
Sometimes it is hard to know where to start. As the saying goes, sometimes the bravest thing you can do is just show up. I would be honored to be with you when you do.
INDIVIDUAL PSYCHOTHERAPY
I provide individual therapy and couples counseling for:
- young adults navigating the complex challenges of college, relationships, identity, finding and engaging in meaningful activity and work,
- mid-life adults working to manage the sometimes overwhelming demands of family, relationships, career and self-care, and
- people transitioning to older adulthood which can bring feelings of loss, adjustment to new roles, changes in health status and search for meaning.
My approach to psychotherapy is collaborative, flexible and confidential. We will work together to identify, clarify and address your specific and unique concerns.

I offer counseling to address an immediate problem or more in-depth psychotherapy to work through long-standing patterns that interfere with balance in your life.
