About Mary

Mary "Jackie" Downie is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with twenty years of experience. She works with people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or life changes. Jackie focuses on practical steps you can try now and listens for strengths you may have overlooked.

She begins work by finding what has helped you before and bringing those tools into the present. Sessions often look at patterns from the past that still affect day-to-day life and then try out small, manageable changes in thinking and behavior.

Background and approach

This plain, problem-solving approach helps people make steady progress without jumping into big, sudden shifts. Jackie has worked with people coping with trauma from childhood or later events, panic and mood disorders, addictions, grief, and attention challenges. She also helps parents navigate the day-to-day strain of raising children and people who feel stuck or stressed at work.

Her experience includes adoption and foster care issues, attachment concerns, and family of origin problems. In sessions she draws on client-centered conversations, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally-focused ideas, solution-focused planning, and trauma-focused methods. Those methods are used to build clear steps forward, reduce symptoms that get in the way, and strengthen relationships with self and others.

Jackie practices from Wyoming and offers work by video, phone, live chat, and text messaging. She speaks English and brings a steady, practical style to help people find momentum and clearer choices.

Online support

How Jackie blends approaches for online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s own experience and strengths. Jackie uses this to listen closely, reflect what she hears, and help clients notice abilities they already have. It is useful for people who want a supportive space to figure things out.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. Jackie uses CBT tools to help people test unhelpful thoughts and try practical behavior changes to reduce anxiety, panic, or low mood.

Trauma-focused work addresses the effects of traumatic events and helps people learn ways to manage strong reactions. This approach can help with post-traumatic stress, past abuse, and recent traumatic experiences.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jackie will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and together decide which methods to try. That collaborative process means plans can change as progress is made and new priorities emerge.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for connecting regularly. Video calls let people use visual cues and deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be helpful when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief check-ins, notes between sessions, and flexible ways to track progress across a week.
