Mary-Catherine is compassionate and insightful. Friendly and nice with a sense of humor to boot. She has seen me to a much improved state of mind. I recommend talking to her!

Mary-Catherine is a Godsend. I have gained so much control over my emotions and have learned so much about myself through our sessions. Used to just go to the docs and get some pills that never really worked or made matters worse. With Mary's guidance, I now am understanding why I feel as I do and the underlying causes of those feelings. No drugs needed and happier for it. Thank you Mary and thank you Betterhelp.

I have had many therapists before, all helped and were supportive, but Mary-Catherine has been so easy to connect with and an excellent balance of support with loving pushes to help me get where I want to. I highly recommend her!

From our first session, I felt that Dr. Mary listened so well. She made sense out of my ramblings, focused on what was most helpful and asked good questions. I feel like she is my friend already and I could tell her anything.
