Mary Speight, LMFT, CCFP, CIMPH

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 20+ years of experience in the field of behavioral and mental health, having worked with infants, as an Early Interventionist, and then therapist, working with children, adolescents, adults, and elder adults.

I’ve provided mental health support to Veterans and Combat Vets suffering from PTSD and Military Sexual Trauma (MST). I have provided pro bono therapy to Veterans of the Iraq and Afghan Wars, along with their family and friends through the Soldier’s Project. I’ve worked in community mental health, providing contracted mental health services with Los Angeles and San Bernardino Counties, and most recently with the High Desert Vet Center in San Bernardino County. I am also Certified in CCFP, Compassion Fatigue, as well as certified in Integrative Mental Health (CIMHP). Mental wellness is much more than emotions and behaviors, it is also about body and soul. I believe I’m eclectic in my work with clients. Therapy isn’t one size fits all. We all may have similar experiences, but how we behave and react may not always be the same. It’s important that you feel that you can share your experience with me without judgment. To be a mental health clinician is a calling. I believe it’s not just our emotional and mental health that is important, but it includes our physical and spiritual health as well, they all have to work together for us to be healthy. I am a Reiki Practitioner and I use energy psychology to help people become more attuned to their own energy and how it can affect those around them, not just themselves, along with Positive Psychology. I believe we all have the power to make changes and to be the change we wish to become; we just need to get out of our own way and allow the process to happen. Self Care is important to me. I am a writer. I enjoy spending time with my friends, family and fiancé, and dogs.
