Getting to know Mary Lewis
LCSW licensed in Nevada, Nebraska, and Florida bringing over 10 years of experience providing compassionate, client-centered mental health services to individuals, families, veterans including combat and homeless veterans, and people from many different walks of life and diverse backgrounds. I am dedicated to building strong therapeutic rapport with clients and creating a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where they feel heard, respected and empowered.
I have extensive experience working with veterans, individuals coping with PTSD, as well as clients facing low self-esteem, confidence issues, anxiety, depression, stress, anger management challenges, body images concerns and lifestyle-related stressors. My goal is to help clients feel supported while developing practical tools for healing, emotional wellness, and personal growth.
My clinical approach is primarily to help clients identify their strengths, overcome barriers and work toward realistic and meaningful goals. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focus, Motivational Interviewing, mindfulness-based interventions, anger management, and psycho-education techniques to help clients better understand their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. I strive to support individuals in building confidence, improving emotional wellness, and effectively managing stress, anxiety , depression, anger, trauma-related challenges and life transitions while fostering long- term resilience, healing, and lasting positive change.
I am passionate about helping individuals strengthen coping skills, improve mental health, and achieve long-term stability while maintaining ethical standards, cultural competence, and collaborative care throughout the therapeutic process.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Going through therapy with a therapist can be a very beneficial experience for individuals who want to work through their mental health challenges and improve their overall well-being. Here are some steps you can take to make the most of your therapy experience:
Find the right therapist: The first step is to find a therapist who is a good fit for you. Look for someone who specializes in the type of issues you want to address and whose style matches your preferences. I hope I can be that person for you.
Set clear goals: It's important to have clear goals for therapy so that you and I are on the same page. In our first session, we will discuss your goals and work together to create a treatment plan that outlines the steps you will take to achieve those goals.
Try to be open and honest with me about your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I am here to help you, and I can only do so if I have a clear understanding of what's going on.
Trust the process: Therapy can be a long process, and it's important to trust that the work you're doing with me will pay off in the end. It's also important to be patient and not expect instant results.
Practice self-care: In addition to attending therapy sessions, it's important to practice self-care on a regular basis. This may include activities such as exercise, meditation, or spending time with loved ones.
Keep an open mind: Finally, it's important to keep an open mind and be willing to try new things. As your therapist, I may suggest different techniques or approaches that you haven't tried before, and it's important to be receptive to these suggestions.
Remember, therapy is a collaborative process between you and me, so be sure to communicate your thoughts and concerns along the way. With the right mindset and a willingness to work, therapy can be a transformative experience that helps you achieve your goals and improve your quality of life.
