Mary Hafey, LICSW

I really love speaking with Mary. She has a lovely demeanor and is always responsive to my issues. Above all, she is a great listener and validates the fact that I've been deeply hurt and is seeking to help me get through it and explore the nature of the person I was dealing with. I truly am grateful.

Mary is an amazing therapist with life experiences that greatly contribute to her ability to relate and teach lessons with real examples. Mary is always available and on time for every session. After a long search, I found Mary to be the most qualified therapist for me and my needs. It's to my understanding that I pay more for services through Betterhelp than other people pay for similar services, but I believe Mary to be worth the money. Mary has helped me become a better person over the course of our sessions, and I look forward to the future improvements that continued sessions will foster. Mary has helped me become a better person for myself and the people around me. If happiness is scientifically proven to be contagious to the 3rd degree, then that means Mary's effects of my betterment are contageous to the 3rd degree. Mary is single-handedly making the lives of that many people much better. Thank you.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional care and guidance that Mary Hafey has provided me during some of the most challenging times in my life. Her expertise, compassion, and unwavering support have been instrumental in helping me navigate profound personal struggles and emerge stronger, more confident, more self-aware and more aligned with my mind and my heart.

Mary helped me confront and process the deep loss of my child, a pain that felt insurmountable. Her empathetic approach created a safe space where I could grieve openly and begin to heal. She also helped me address the complex feelings of guilt within my relationship, guiding me toward understanding, acceptance, and healthier communication.

One of the most transformative aspects of our work together has been her ability to empower me as a man to trust my decision-making, even in the face of difficult choices. With her support, I found the courage to break off an engagement that no longer aligned with my long-term values—a decision I made with clarity and confidence because of her guidance. Mary has helped me develop a more forward-thinking mindset, ensuring that my actions reflect my goals and integrity.

Her ability to combine deep empathy with practical tools for growth sets her apart as a therapist. I am incredibly grateful for the impact she has had on my life and cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone seeking meaningful change and growth. Mary is truly exceptional, and I give her the highest marks in every regard.
