About Mary
Mary Geiger is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Montana with 14 years of experience. She works with adults on issues such as depression, anxiety, addictions, trauma, and relationship concerns including codependency. Sessions address everyday problems like sleep, eating, parenting stress, grief, and coping with life changes.
Mary offers straightforward, practical care. She starts by getting to know each person and what helps them most. Treatment focuses on concrete skills and steps people can use between sessions. She draws on approaches that teach new ways to manage thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.
In her background Mary has provided substance abuse and mental health treatment in correctional settings, working specifically with individuals involved with felony DUI cases. She also maintains a private practice where she sees adults, teens, and children for a range of mental health concerns. Her experience includes work with trauma and with people trying to reduce harmful drinking or drug use.
Her approach uses a mix of methods such as cognitive-behavioral tools, acceptance strategies, mindfulness, and skills from dialectical behavior therapy. Mary collaborates with clients to pick techniques that fit their goals. She reviews progress and adjusts plans as needed.
Outside work she spends time with her grandchildren, plans travels, and gets outdoors hiking around Montana. That balance informs how she helps people handle stress and rebuild routines.
How sessions work
How her therapy approaches translate online
Mary draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in online sessions. ACT focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions toward them even when uncomfortable feelings appear. It can help people who feel stuck putting others first and want clearer priorities. CBT targets unhelpful thought patterns and builds practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change behaviors that feed codependent patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mary will talk with the client about goals and preferences and then try approaches that fit. She adjusts tools and pacing based on what is most useful for the person, making decisions together rather than prescribing a fixed plan.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce the need to travel. It also lets therapists use worksheets, in-session exercises, and skills coaching in ways that suit a client’s daily routine.
