Dr. Mary Walker , LPC

Dr. Mary Walker is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with 10 years of clinical experience helping people navigate difficult life transitions and longstanding challenges. She brings an empathetic, person-centered approach informed by formal training - a master of counseling degree from Houston Graduate School of Theology and a Ph.D. from Texas A&M Corpus Christi - and years of hands-on work with adolescents and adults. Her early career as a high school art teacher and her mentoring roles in church communities shaped her ability to listen for underlying needs and to engage people where they are.

Her practice focuses on areas such as eating and sleeping concerns, addictions, LGBT issues, grief, career transitions, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and coaching. She has also worked extensively with survivors of childhood abuse and people coping with trauma, PTSD, dissociation, personality-related struggles, depression, OCD, and anxiety. Those experiences have deepened her commitment to walking alongside individuals as they build coping skills, process painful history, and discover sustainable ways to move forward.

Clinically she draws from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), existential approaches, and mindfulness-based techniques, integrating methods to fit each person s needs. Her style emphasizes a gentle, practical, and collaborative stance - helping people identify strengths, develop new skills, and pursue meaningful change. Dr. Walker values the resilience she sees in the people she meets and supports clients who are ready to do the often hard but worthwhile work of recovery and growth.
