About Mary

Mary Geiger is a licensed counselor who focuses on helping people navigate depression, anxiety, and substance misuse. She holds LCPC and LMFT credentials and brings 14 years of clinical experience. Her style is warm and straightforward, aimed at understanding what each person needs and finding practical steps forward.

In private practice she sees adults, teens, and children, and she also works in a corrections setting providing substance abuse and mental health treatment for people with felony DUIs. She commonly addresses trauma, mood concerns, and issues with sleep or eating, and she helps people manage relationship strain and parenting stress.

Mary uses many therapeutic tools to suit each person’s needs. She often draws on cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance-oriented strategies, and skills from dialectical behavior work. She discusses options with clients and builds a tailored plan together rather than using a one-size-fits-all method.

Her background includes focused work with addiction and trauma, and she evaluates when trauma-focused interventions are appropriate. She also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused approaches to support change and practical problem solving.

Outside of her clinical work she values family time and outdoor life in Montana. She enjoys hiking and travel and often brings a calm, down-to-earth perspective into sessions.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take steps toward those values while accepting hard feelings. It is useful for depression, anxiety, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving to ease symptoms like low mood and worry. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication in relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mary will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then suggest which approaches to try together. That collaborative process helps shape a plan that fits day-to-day life and specific needs.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow check-in conversations when a full in-person visit is harder to arrange. Talk with the therapist about what will work best for timing, session length, and how therapeutic tools will be practiced between meetings.
