Licensed Master of Social Work

My name is Mary Mahoney, and I have worked in behavioral health and social services for a dozen years. I offer therapy services at our Olney, MD clinic. My professional background as a case worker has allowed me to develop a deep understanding of the complex systems and barriers many people face, and I bring that knowledge into my work as a Licensed Master Social Worker. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process, and it is my mission to create a strong therapeutic relationship where the client feels heard, supported, and empowered. My goal is to help each person build on their strengths, overcome challenges, and create meaningful, lasting change in their lives.

I practice from a trauma-informed perspective. I have worked with adults of diverse backgrounds: veterans and their families, those from marginalized communities, and justice-involved individuals. My clinical experience includes supporting individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, and life transitions.

I understand that reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, and sometimes that first step is the hardest part. I hope to create a safe space where you feel free to be yourself without fear of judgment. I value honesty and connection, and I will meet you where you are. If you’re considering therapy, I invite you to reach out.
