About Mary

Dr. Mary Torok offers therapy for people looking for practical strategies and steady support for stress, anxiety, mood concerns, relationship difficulties, and ADHD.

Background and approach

With an emphasis on helping clients build coping skills and improve communication, she draws on a range of evidence-informed methods to tailor care to each person’s goals. She is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 11 years of clinical experience.

Her work blends cognitive-behavioral techniques with acceptance-based and emotion-focused practices to address depression, trauma, grief, addictive behaviors, parenting challenges, and related concerns. Dr.

Torok also brings experience with attachment and family issues, and she focuses on teaching skills that clients can use in daily life. Services are provided through remote formats that match modern schedules and needs, and she applies both directive and collaborative styles depending on what will best help a client progress.

Dr. Torok prioritizes an educational, strengths-based approach that aims to empower people to manage obstacles, clarify values, and build more effective patterns in relationships and self-care.

Therapeutic Approaches and Remote Care

Dr. Torok commonly integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy into online work. ACT helps people clarify their values and commit to actions that align with what matters to them while learning to accept difficult internal experiences rather than fight them. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and developing concrete skills to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression.

She also incorporates Client-Centered Therapy principles, offering a supportive, nonjudgmental stance that centers each person's perspective and strengths. Together these approaches allow for both skill-building and exploration of meaning, and she collaborates with clients to determine which methods feel most useful based on individual goals and preferences.

Online therapy with her is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility for busy lives. These remote options make it easier to fit regular sessions into work, school, or family routines while maintaining continuity of care. The combination of tailored therapeutic techniques and flexible formats aims to help clients practice new skills in real-world settings and track progress over time.
