About Mary
Mary Radaker is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania with 18 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, and depression. Mary aims to make the first step toward change feel manageable and supported.
She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can say what they think and feel. Conversations are direct and practical, with time spent on what is happening now and what can change.
Background and approach
Mary pays attention to how thoughts, behaviors, and relationships affect day-to-day life. Her work draws on several approaches, including client-centered talk, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior ideas, EMDR, and the Gottman Method. She mixes these tools to fit the needs of each person rather than following one set path.
That means therapy sessions often include skill-building, focused problem solving, and space to process painful memories. Mary also addresses concerns such as body image, communication problems, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, impulsivity, infidelity, and isolation. She supports people facing mood disorders, obsessive-compulsive patterns, panic, phobias, personality challenges, and post-traumatic stress.
Her style is collaborative and straightforward. Clients can expect clear goals, practical strategies to try between sessions, and steady support while they work toward better daily functioning and more satisfying relationships.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Mary integrates the Gottman Method to focus on relationship patterns and communication skills, helping people understand interaction habits and work toward healthier exchanges. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns that feed anxiety and depression. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used when processing traumatic memories becomes central, offering a structured way to work through distressing experiences.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Mary discusses goals and preferences with each person and blends methods that fit their needs. That collaborative planning helps shape session work and homework so therapy stays relevant and practical.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different situations. Video is useful for a fuller conversation and skill practice, while phone calls can be a simpler option with lower bandwidth needs. Live chat or messaging can work well for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep progress moving forward.
