About Mary Noel
I received my Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology from Southwestern College in Santa Fe, New Mexico in 2014. I also hold a certificate in Eco-Psycholgy and am trained through The School of Lost Borders on Native American vision quests which I have been a participant and a leader. While finishing my studies at Southwestern College, I spent a summer in the Andes mountains in Peru providing social services to those who lived in a tiny village called Maras. I also worked with those who have experienced homelessness, severe mental dignoses, community infant mental health for mothers and the LGBTQ population. The rich experiences that I have had while in graduate school and doing my 3000 hours toward full licensure only deepened my connection to source/spirit and to all of humanity thus allowing to truly hone in on my skills as a clinician!
In addition, I hold a Bachelor of Science from Texas Tech University with a teaching certificate in Physical Education and Special Education. I was an elementary teacher in the Austin Independent School District for 13 years before venturing into my second career and my soul’s calling as a therapist. It wasn’t soon after I moved back to Austin with my Master’s in Counseling, before I found my way back into the schools being of service to some of the very same students that I taught in previous years helping students navigate through identity crisis, family struggles, anxiety and depression.
I began my private practice in 2018 counseling adults with a primary focus on helping those live the ultimate life of their dreams! Through the use of ancient spiritual practices and ideologies, the law of attraction and somatic body based theories for healing trauma, I empower my clients to move through the many feelings that keep them feeling stuck in life! I thoroughly believe in the healing power of therapy! It is through the relationship and trust built with the therapist that one can explore their inner world in a safe environment and then begin to feel whole again!!! Bottom line….It is through my own deep journey of healing of severe childhood trauma that I feel I am able to do this work and help others!
