Mary Bulla

Mary Bulla is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida who helps people facing stress, anxiety, anger, grief, depression, and major life changes. She supports those dealing with relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, career shifts, ADHD, and the emotional impact of illness. Mary approaches each person with respect and a nonjudgmental attitude.

Her style is flexible and collaborative. She listens first, then tailors sessions to what the client finds useful. Feedback is encouraged so sessions can change as needs change. The aim is steady, practical progress rather than quick fixes.

Mary earned a master’s degree from Nova Southeastern University and has three years of clinical experience. Her background includes work as a grief and bereavement specialist in hospice, roles with children and teens in community health settings, and private practice with adults. Personal experience with a cancer diagnosis shapes her interest in supporting people with chronic and terminal illness.

In sessions she draws on an eclectic mix of methods. That can include client-centered techniques, solution-focused work, psychodynamic ideas, and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) when appropriate. She also uses psychoeducation, cognitive behavioral tools, and creative approaches like art and play when they fit the client.

Mary emphasizes partnership in therapy. She invites honesty and wants clients to feel empowered to choose what’s best for them. If a person tries therapy and it doesn’t feel like the right match, she supports finding another direction.

How Mary’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps people who need a calm, accepting space to talk through stress, relationship concerns, or life transitions.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is a structured approach that addresses traumatic memories by pairing focused attention with guided processing. It can be useful for people coping with past trauma, post-traumatic stress, or intense distress tied to specific events.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mary will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level. That decision is revisited as therapy progresses so methods can shift if they are not helping.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into busy schedules and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments around work, caregiving, or health needs. The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking to make sure the delivery method suits your needs.
