Mary Horton

Mary Horton is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 25 years of experience providing individual therapy to adults navigating complex emotional and life challenges. She works with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, adjustment disorders, relationship concerns, and the emotional impact of chronic medical and behavioral health conditions. Mary is passionate about offering accessible, compassionate counseling through secure telehealth and in-home therapy services across the East Valley of Arizona.

Mary believes therapy should feel supportive, collaborative, and grounded in respect for each person’s unique story. Her approach blends clinical knowledge with genuine empathy, helping clients develop insight, emotional regulation skills, and practical coping strategies. She works closely with adults who want to build resilience, improve communication, and create a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Using evidence-based therapeutic approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, mindfulness practices, and trauma-informed care, Mary tailors treatment to the individual rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model. She is committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and judgment-free environment where adults feel empowered to grow, heal, and move forward with confidence.
