Mary Hoisington, LMFT

Psychotherapist
CA
Hi there, I'm Mary! You don't need someone to nod at you for 50 minutes with a blank stare. You need someone who actually gets it. I'm Mary Hoisington, LMFT, with 16+ years of clinical experience. My clients are capable adults, many of them professionals & first responders, who tend to look fine on the outside but are struggling to find relief on the inside. My focus Adults who are capable and hold things together well, but are carrying more than they let on. Many are successful professionals. I help with stress, burnout, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, moral injury, reactivity, people-pleasing, relationships, and life transitions. You don't need to be in crisis to start. My approach Steady, empathic, & practical. Some work is concrete: managing anxiety, boundaries, anger, & burnout. When the past is still driving the present, we go deeper into trauma, attachment, & stuck patterns. I tailor the approach to you, drawing on CBT, trauma-focused therapy, & EMDR when it fits. You set the pace; nothing you bring in can rattle me. My communication style Honest, warm, and real. If I notice a pattern, I'll share what I see, and we'll sort out together whether it fits. No clichés, jargon, or scripts. As a wife, mom, and former collegiate athlete, I know what it is to carry expectations in every direction. Therapy should be the one place you don't have to. There's also plenty of room for humor, too. My journey to mental healthcare My career began in 2009 with a juvenile diversion program, then residential treatment centers, community mental health, and years of crisis and co-responder work alongside LAPD/public safety agencies. 6+ years in private practice. Every setting has taught me the same lesson: people in hard moments need someone real who truly listens and "gets it."
