About Maura
Maura Callary is a licensed marriage and family therapist who focuses on helping people find steadier ground when life feels overwhelming. She brings two decades of clinical experience to conversations about anxiety, depression, addiction, parenting challenges, and major life changes. Maura aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can say what they’re feeling and start to make different choices.
Her approach is practical and person-centered. She listens for what matters most to each person and helps them connect choices to values.
Background and approach
Sessions often include attention to relationships and how early attachment patterns shape present struggles. Mindfulness tools and reflective questions are used to help people notice habits and try new ways of responding. Maura has worked across systems that include foster care, juvenile justice, and substance use settings.
That background informs her awareness of complex life situations and co-occurring issues, such as dual diagnosis and neurodiversity. She draws on experience supporting people facing grief, compassion fatigue, bipolar symptoms, sleep and eating concerns, and ADHD-related challenges. People who see Maura can expect straightforward talk and practical next steps.
She encourages small experiments between sessions to test what helps. Progress is framed around clearer values, improved communication, and steadier emotional regulation. Maura is licensed in Texas and California as an LMFT, and she offers services in English.

Online support
How her approaches shape online therapy
Maura commonly draws on Existential Therapy to help people clarify what matters most and to face difficult choices with more meaning. That approach focuses on exploring values, life purpose, and how people want to move forward when they feel stuck.She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy ideas to look at how early relationship patterns influence current feelings and reactions. Working this way helps people notice recurring interaction patterns and try new ways of connecting and communicating.
Finding the right method is part of the work together. Maura discusses options and helps clients decide which approaches fit their goals and daily life. Decisions about techniques and pace are collaborative and adjusted as therapy progresses.
Online formats offer flexibility for busy schedules and different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper emotional work. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, ongoing problem-solving, and quick coaching between longer sessions.
