Dr. Mary Fields is a clinical psychologist based in Indiana who helps people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, or parenting strain. She works with people facing relationship or intimacy concerns, identity and LGBT questions, trauma and abuse, and life transitions. Her manner is warm and reflective, aiming to make conversations feel straightforward and humane.

She uses a blend of approaches to match what each person needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps break down thinking patterns that keep problems going. Mindfulness practices teach simple ways to slow down and notice what’s happening in the moment. Jungian and existential ideas come into sessions when people want to better understand meaning, identity, or recurring life themes.

Dr. Fields holds psychology licenses in Colorado and North Carolina - CO Psychologist PSY.0006894 and NC Psychologist 5755. She has three years of professional experience and brings that practical perspective to the work. Sessions can focus on concrete skills like sleep and coping strategies or on deeper questions about values and purpose.

She also supports people dealing with ADHD, bipolar concerns, career stress, caregiver strain, body image, and chronic illness. Additional areas of focus include adoption and foster care, attachment and abandonment issues, and sexual variety and kink topics. The emphasis is on clear goals, skill-building, and steady progress.

Outside of therapy she enjoys being outdoors, watching thrillers, and family time with her husband, three children, and a playful cat. That down-to-earth side shows up in sessions as a practical, straightforward approach to change.

Online approaches and how they help

Dr. Fields commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy to address everyday problems. CBT focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and managing ADHD symptoms. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that help reduce reactivity and support coping with stress and chronic pain.

She also uses Existential and Jungian ideas when people want to examine purpose, identity, and recurring life patterns. Those approaches encourage reflection about values, meaning, and personal narrative, which can be helpful for major life transitions, career decisions, or questions around identity and intimacy. Together the therapist and client decide which approaches fit best, adjusting the plan as goals and preferences become clearer.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging can support shorter exchanges, ongoing coaching, or moments when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, and daily life.
