About Mary
BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 23 years of professional experience, Mary Hollow helps people address stress, anxiety, grief, depression and life changes. She works with concerns such as addictions, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, anger and self-esteem. Her main ways of working include Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).
Mary keeps sessions straightforward and practical. She listens to what matters most and uses conversation to identify small, usable steps. CBT is used when people want tools to change patterns of thinking and behaviour. Client-Centred Therapy is used when people need space to voice feelings and be heard without judgement.
Her practice also focuses on career questions, communication problems and first responder issues. She supports people dealing with guilt, shame, forgiveness and questions about life purpose. Post-traumatic stress, social anxiety and phobia are listed areas of experience as well.
Sessions aim to balance emotional support and problem-solving. Mary works with each person to agree on goals and ways of measuring progress. Over time clients can expect a mix of reflective talk and practical techniques to try between meetings.
Mary conducts work in English and can see international clients. She uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time, and fees vary by location. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial meeting through the See online therapy options button.

How her approaches translate to online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. In practice this means the counsellor offers open, non-judgemental attention so people can name feelings and concerns. This approach often helps when someone needs to process grief, shame or strong emotions.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) emphasises identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing practical changes. It involves short exercises, experiments and homework to reduce anxiety, manage mood and change avoidance patterns.
Finding the right way of working is part of the process. Mary will discuss goals and preferences and agree a plan with each person. That collaborative setup means approaches can be adjusted as needs and responses become clearer.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings around work and family commitments, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people choose sessions with or without video depending on what suits them for the day. Many registered or accredited professionals use this flexible approach to help clients keep therapy practical and manageable.
