Psychotherapy can help you make sense of complicated feelings, gain insight into relational patterns, and begin to move forward in areas of your life where you feel stuck. My focus is to help you untangle struggles, revise problematic narratives about yourself, and re-orient you toward your values. I offer individual and couples therapy, psychological assessments (including ADHD and ASD), and gender affirming evaluation services.
My integrative approach is informed by psychodynamic, behavioral, and trauma informed theories. I am trained in EMDR. Above all, I value the therapeutic relationship and your personal growth.

Waitlist for new clients
I’m Margaux (she/her). As the child of immigrants and a mother through foster care and adoption, I have lived experience of othering, marginalization, struggle, and triumph. I am a human rights activist and a creative at heart who recognizes the inherent worth of all people and the breathtaking beauty of diversity and difference. I am drawn to therapy because of the transformative nature of connection and the power contained in sharing our stories to change our realities. I am a graduate of Gallaudet University’s MSW program and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW).

I have experience working with survivors of sexual assault and certified in trauma-informed therapy. This works by using somatic techniques and mindfulness to bring awareness to your body. The approach is a “bottom-up” method, where importance is placed on body sensations that tap into your internal wisdom to find relief.

Living with unresolved trauma, anxiety, depression, or feeling emotionally stuck.
Experiencing instability — housing challenges, strained relationships, financial stress, or legal issues.

We work with individuals, families, and children.

Our greatest intention is to help you understand yourself better and improve your quality of life and relationships.

You may have come here because something is not working in your life and you want it better or because you want more from life.
