Background and approach

Trauma-Focused Therapy guides work with past hurt and symptoms that linger after difficult events. With three years of clinical experience, Mallory has worked in both acute and non-acute settings. That background means she is familiar with fast-paced care and with longer-term support.

She often teaches concrete coping skills and helps people practice them between sessions. Common areas she addresses include mood disorders, panic and panic attacks, low self-esteem, and the effects of trauma and abuse. She also helps people facing changes in life, relationship communication problems, feelings of isolation, and forgiveness work.

Veteran and armed forces issues are listed among her focus areas. Sessions are offered in English and take place online through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Mallory practices in Florida and holds the LMHC credential for the state of Florida.

Online therapy using CBT and trauma-informed methods

She practices Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify patterns of thinking that feed anxiety and depression and then try concrete behavior changes to test new results. CBT sessions often include short exercises and homework to practice skills between meetings.

She also uses Trauma-Focused Therapy to gently address the impact of past events on everyday life. This approach focuses on processing distressing memories and reducing symptoms that get in the way of daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. Plans may change over time as progress is made and priorities shift.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation when helpful. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a hands-free option is needed. Live chat or text messaging can serve for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or people who prefer typed conversation during a busy day.
