With over three decades as a therapist-turned-coach, Mary Ayers, PhD, helps people who have been strong for too long finally interrupt the patterns that keep them overwhelmed, exhausted, and stuck in survival mode. Her work blends the grounded insight of clinical training with the flexibility of coaching, giving clients tools that reach the body, the brain, and the emotional weight they’ve been carrying.

Rather than offering quick fixes or mindset hacks, Mary teaches clients how to regulate the nervous system that has been driving their burnout. The result is a real, tangible shift — clearer thinking, steadier emotions, more energy, and the capacity to move through life without constant bracing.

Clients seek Mary when they’re ready for change that actually sticks. Her compassionate, science-backed process helps people feel like themselves again: calm, capable, and supported from the inside out.
