Margaret McCallum

I see you as a whole person — not just a diagnosis. I offer warm, neurodivergent-affirming therapy for young adults, couples, and individuals navigating anxiety, perfectionism, life transitions, and relationship challenges. I especially love working with ADHD brains and helping you understand your unique rhythms and strengths. Rooted in mindfulness, self-compassion, and the mind–body connection, our work together gently untangles old patterns and makes space for authentic self-expression. Weaving insight with heart, depth and lightness. My hope is that you leave feeling more connected, balanced, and free to express your truest self.

Now offering EMDR! As a humanistic therapist, I see you as the expert of your own story and meet you with warmth, curiosity, and zero judgment always. I integrate CBT, DBT, ACT, EMDR, IFS, psychodynamic, narrative, and somatic informed approaches. Together we gently process what feels heavy and create space for healing, clarity, and radical self acceptance.

After experiencing the transformative power of therapy firsthand, I’m dedicated to creating a safe, compassionate, and supportive space for my clients to grow and heal. If you are struggling with mental health challenges or simply want to learn how to live a more balanced and fulfilling life, I would be honored to support you along your journey.

I am a person-centered therapist first and foremost. I believe that a safe therapeutic relationship is what facilitates the healing process more than any tool or tip. I tailor my approach to each client based on their unique needs, but I love to use a combination of bottom-up approaches like IFS, EMDR, and Somatic Therapy with more top down therapies like CBT, DBT, ACT, and psychodynamic therapy.
