About Mary

Mary Jo Greenwood is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Wyoming with 21 years of experience. She works with adults on issues such as depression, anxiety, relationship problems, grief, and anger, and she accepts clients internationally. Mary Jo focuses on practical support that helps people manage daily life and interpersonal strain.

She trained in social work at the University of Nebraska at Omaha and has worked across levels of care, from psychiatric inpatient units to outpatient counseling, crisis centers, and group homes. Much of her career has involved child welfare and juvenile systems, including work with abused and neglected children and their parents. Mary Jo has also supported military veterans and understands navigating VA-related processes.

Her clinical approach is trauma-informed and client-driven. She combines Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy as fits each person. Sessions focus on clear goals, practical skills, and strategies to reduce reactivity and improve relationships.

Mary Jo has helped people who struggle with sleep or obsessive worries, parenting stress, substance concerns, and mood instability. She draws on experience with diverse settings to make plans that adjust as needs change. Her work emphasizes straightforward tools people can use between sessions.

She believes starting small can ease the process of getting help. Mary Jo supports gradual steps toward more engagement, such as beginning with less direct contact and building up as comfort grows. To begin, follow the site process to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Mary Jo draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Mindfulness Therapy in her online work. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past connections affect current relationships and helps people spot patterns that lead to anger or withdrawal. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to test unhelpful thoughts and change reactions. Mindfulness Therapy uses simple awareness exercises to reduce automatic reactivity and improve emotional regulation.

Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to identify goals and try techniques that fit those goals and preferences. That plan can change over time as progress is reviewed and new needs appear.

Confirm the specific session formats offered before booking since the profile does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a daily routine, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and remove travel time so people can use breaks at work or evenings more easily. Talk with her during the matching step about how you prefer to begin and what pace feels manageable.
