About me
Hi! My name is Mary. I've been a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California for over 10 years. I earned my Master's of Science in Counseling with an emphasis on Marriage and Family Counseling and Rehabilitation Counseling from San Francisco State University in 2003. I decided to pursue my Master's because I was working with people in my community--and saw the benefits that they were gaining from working with Therapists. I decided that that was a way I could help them even more! Before that, I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology and Women's Studies from the University of California at Santa Cruz. Some of my previous work has included domestic violence, sexual assault, group therapy, individual and couples-based therapy, family therapy and art therapy.
I have experience working with couples and families in a variety of settings. I work from a client-centered perspective, meeting the clients where they are at regarding their need for help. Some important things that may need to be addressed are communication, keeping the balance in the relationship, teaching healthy coping skills for dealing with partners, helping them let go of resentment in the relationship, and understanding when the relationship is over.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Mary Unruh-Tipton. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Mary was terrific for my wife and I during a tremendous crisis. Can't recommend her any higher.
Mary Unruh-Tipton gave us such sound and grounded guidance through a very difficult time. We have set some great boundaries and are well on our way to a better year because of her. We look forward to meeting with her again down the road for another "relationship oil change" - we will miss her until then!
Mary is a great therapist. Both my husband and I enjoy talking to her. She is easy to talk to and explains everything to our level of understanding. She's very down to earth and it sounds like she genuinely wants to help.
Very talented and helpful
She’s been so great and I’m excited to keep working with her.
Very helpful, caring, and confident!
