Hi my name is Mary White and I am an Art and Clinical Family therapist.

I have found my room within the Muddy Creek Hub the ideal location a place to flourish.   The friendly warm and safe environment is conducive for psychotherapy.  I have been practicing for the past six years and have been privileged to walk with many on their life journey.

 

My passion came from my own mental health challenges over the past 40 years.  I pursued my dream in 2016 and 2021 to study and obtain two Master Degrees so help others discover themselves more fully.

 

Some food for thought:

When things get tough have you ever said to yourself, or something similar:

 

“I can get through this, I don’t need any help!”

“Get over this, keep busy and stop thinking about the problem”

“I have had enough, I just cannot keep doing this anymore!”

“Tomorrow is another day, I will get better!”

 

I had these conversations, along with many others,  during my lifetime. These thoughts gave me a moments reprieve before jumping back on the merry-go-round of endless self-talk making me feel tired, increasing exhaustion and generally spiralling into states of increased anxiety and depression. I was fortunate enough to discover, whilst studying for my Master’s in Clinical Family therapy in 2022, a transformative tool to address my inner conversations. The Internal Family Systems (IFS) process helped me access my protective parts, creating a safe connectedness with them and develop a deep understanding of these parts.  Clients have commented  after sessions, their appreciation of the non-pathologizing application, the organic nature of the work and regaining their own Self leadership. The answers are within each of us.  Just finding a way to navigate our own GPS system is the key offered by IFS.  More information on my website:  www.mwhitetherapist.org
