Welcome! I'm Margarete, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and a Certified Advanced Alcohol/Drug Counselor. My goal in therapy is to build an honest, trusting relationship, creating a area of safety, where you can deal with challenges in the light of truth, honesty, and reality.

Are you looking for a radical therapist with a sense of humor to support you and someone you care about in navigating an interpersonal issue? Would you like to develop a more loving and understanding relationship with all of your parts? I offer an integrated, holistic approach rooted in an anti-supremacy perspective. I don't believe anything works for every client but I find myself using the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model of therapy the most often. Most importantly, I strive to create a therapeutic environment that feels accepting and nonjudgmental without compromising opportunities for growth and expanded possibilities.

We all have times in our life when we face struggle, frustration, anguish, and tragedy. These times, while painful and seemingly bleak, can also offer opportunities for profound growth. These times can be used to look within, gain more self-understanding, nurture our resilience, strengthen our confidence, and make choices to better align ourselves with the life we seek to live. By engaging in therapy, you can process your thoughts and emotions; obtain insight and guidance; and define the life you choose to live. With time and effort, you can grow into your unique and beautiful self.

Challenging circumstances or chronic stress can take a toll on our mental health. It’s great you are considering counseling to gain new insight into your life, make important changes, or simply feel more supported at this time. I believe having a better understanding of our past experiences and current habits can help us more effectively manage life’s ups and downs. My approach to counseling starts with identifying underlying causes of anger, anxiety, or depression—as well as uncovering each client’s unique strengths and coping strategies. From there, I strive to help clients develop new, healthier thought patterns and behaviors.

Ever feel run down from taking care of others? Tired to the point of exhaustion but afraid or unable to stop? Unsure how you ended up where you are but sure you don't want to be there anymore? It's an easy place to find ourselves. What isn't easy is getting out of it. I can help. For over 20 years I've been providing a confidential, nurturing environment that in which people can safely figure out who they are and what they’re about. Working together, we explore life’s questions, challenges and opportunities, as well as the stories we're living by and the ones we want to live by.

Counseling for Couples, Addictions, Careers, Adolescents and the Elderly in a safe and professional environment. I have a MSPCC from Neumann University with over fifteen years of field experience.

I believe everyone could use someone to talk to. If you find yourself struggling with life, family, school, grief or a life transition, allow me to be the person to listen and help you find your way through these obstacles. Grief, stress management, goal setting, anxiety, depression, and relationships are my areas of focus. The approaches I use for these concerns are evidence-based and designed to be highly effective. Noticeable results occur when CBT, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Family Systems, Strength-Based, Grief Counseling or Mindfulness techniques are used in our sessions.

Mental health struggles hinder a person’s every task, which is why taking care of your mental health is the best decision you can make for yourself. If you struggle with changing your mindsets and controlling your emotions, I aim to psychoeducate you on skills and techniques that are primarily solution-focused and goal-driven. By getting to know yourself on a deeper level, you can change how you conceptualize yourself, your interactions and your life experiences.

I believe therapy is most helpful in an atmosphere of acceptance and respect. In a safe and collaborative environment, we can work together toward your personal goals. I am passionate about helping my clients cope with life stressors, to get relief from painful emotional symptoms, and to feel understood. Beginning therapy is not easy. My approach to therapy begins with helping clients to define their goals and to empower them to move toward the most fulfilling life possible.

I will work with you to capitalize on your strengths and help you identify and move beyond unhelpful mental and behavioral patterns lurking in your blind spots. Rather than talk endlessly about your problems, we will instead use various empirically supported techniques to step back from your problems and explore new behavioral and belief options that better correspond to your key goals and values. Then you'll practice these new perspectives and strategies at home in your real life until they feel more natural. **Please phone me first as I do not always have daily email access.
