Practitioner record · Checked 7 Nov 2026
Mary Taylor-Ennis has been in practice 26 years and is licensed in Maryland. Mary lists stress, Anxiety, relationship issues and self esteem among 11 subjects on the BetterHelp roster.
Everything below is either quoted from Mary's own BetterHelp listing, taken from public licensing records, or written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such. Nothing here is an availability promise, a review, or a rating.
01 · Who Mary works with
Mary lists 5 specialisms and 6 further focus areas. Specialisms are the subjects Mary chose to list first, which is the closest a listing gets to “this is my actual practice”.
02 · In Mary's own words
Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.
As a licensed psychologist with over two decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating life's complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients address depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, and self-esteem concerns. With a deep understanding of the unique experiences of Black women and older adults, I offer compassionate, faith-informed counseling that honors individual journeys and strengths.
My approach is rooted in creating a supportive, understanding environment where clients can explore their emotions, develop resilience, and cultivate meaningful personal growth. I believe in empowering individuals to discover their inner resources and build effective coping strategies for life's transitions and challenges.
Drawing from extensive clinical experience, I am committed to providing culturally responsive care that respects each client's background, spiritual beliefs, and personal narrative. My goal is to walk alongside you, offering guidance, empathy, and professional support as you work towards healing and personal transformation.

03 · What happens next
Mary practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Mary's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.
BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Mary at this point.
BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Mary is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Mary.
You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.
A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.
Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.
04 · Before you commit
Built from what Mary actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Mary's - Mary has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.
“With 26 years in, what has changed most in how you work?”
Long experience is only an advantage if it has been examined. This tends to surface whether it has.
“How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”
On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.
