More about Margaret

  • 13 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

As a licensed therapist in Pennsylvania, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex life transitions and emotional challenges. My approach is rooted in compassionate, faith/spiritually informed counseling that honors each person's unique journey. I have extensive experience in individual therapy, intensive outpatient and partial hospitalization programs helping clients address depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and self-esteem concerns.

My therapeutic work focuses on empowering individuals to develop deeper self-understanding and meaningful personal growth. I provide dedicated support for those experiencing isolation, workplace stress, family challenges, and midlife transitions. Utilizing DBT, CBT, ACT and other modalities, I create a supportive environment where clients can explore their emotions, heal from past wounds, and rediscover their sense of purpose.

I am committed to walking alongside individuals as they work through guilt, shame, communication barriers, and personal transformation. My goal is to help you build resilience, cultivate self-love, and develop healthier relationship patterns that align with your values and personal goals.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
