About Mary Beth Ritchie
She tailors each plan to the individual, drawing on a range of clinical approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. That flexibility allows her to meet varied needs across issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, grief, self-esteem, LGBT issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting and caregiver stress, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes.
Mary Beth offers some live sessions but relies heavily on asynchronous messaging. She finds that messaging gives both the therapist and the person seeking help time to reflect, process, and respond thoughtfully, which can be a useful complement to real-time sessions. As an LCSW - a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - she combines clinical training with practical experience to support each person’s unique journey.
She works with international clients, though she is not accepting new clients at this time.

Individuals can connect with licensed professionals in the way that feels most comfortable - by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging. That range of options makes it easier to fit regular support into a schedule and to maintain continuity of care when circumstances change.
Therapists who offer online services are licensed professionals, and many people find that the convenience and accessibility of remote work help them stay engaged with the therapeutic process. If the match with a particular therapist is not working, people can switch to find a better fit.
