People of all ethnicities, faiths, races, belief systems, and cultures are welcome in my (virtual) practice; all can expect to find respect, genuine caring, palpable empathy, dignity, collaborative treatment.

I am a doctor of clinical social work, board certified in oncology care, whose goal it is to provide a compassionate space for therapy. In my many years of experience in cancer care in a healthcare setting, my work has afforded me the opportunity to support individuals, families, and loved ones through life threatening and life-limiting illness, trauma, grief, loss, existential distress, and the search for meaning in the face of adversity. In life, there is suffering for us all in different ways and we can perhaps find meaning in the pain, purpose in the loss, and comfort through the journey.

I've been in the field of social services for over 25 years, and I've had the good fortune to work in many different settings and with a vast array of populations.

My primary aim in my work is to meet my clients "where they are" by tuning in to their unique concerns and creating an atmosphere where they feel acknowledged and at ease. My style is warm, empathic and engaged which, combined with my acumen as a seasoned clinician, helps adults, children, parents and families feel comfortable and secure. Within this safe space, my clients express their concerns and work to repair and optimize wholesome development with professional recommendations that help to inform a collaborative therapeutic plan.

When your world is too loud, therapy can be your quiet corner. Sometimes the demands of daily life feel impossible to manage and you're looking for more help.

If you are reading my post, it means that you have reached the point where you are looking to improve some aspects of your life or make a complete metamorphosis. You may be seeking inner peace, acceptance of yourself and others or ready to fulfill your potential. I don’t expect you to pronounce or spell my first name, you can call me Margaret like everybody else in the U.S. But I do expect that you will be honest with yourself, open minded to change (which is not always easy) and collaborate with me during the process. I have been working in the field for over 30 years, in outpatient and inpatient hospital settings.

What makes an authentic life? How do we create a meaningful existence, while making our way through the unexpected twists and turns in our path? As an engaged and compassionate psychotherapist, I will companion you in navigating major life transitions, relationships, identity issues, family, career conflicts or creative blocks. We will identify and shift long-standing patterns that no longer serve growth, while working together to reduce symptoms that prevent you from living a fulfilling life. Disruptive patterns and symptoms also carry the seeds for change if we listen carefully and connect with their deeper currents of meaning.

Seeking therapy is in itself a sign of strength and courage as it can often seem easier to avoid painful issues rather than to address them. You might be feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, anger, sadness or "numbness" or struggling in relationships with others past and present. It can be helpful to know that all of our experiences, especially the most challenging ones are powerful starting points on the road to positive emotional growth and healing transformations. Our pain serves as a motivator, encouraging us to explore something more fully so that we may ultimately become free of its hold upon us.

I believe my clients are the experts in their lives. I see myself as a facilitator of conversations that lead my clients to new perspectives. Therapy is an opportunity to take control of one's problems and as an opportunity to become the preferred version of oneself. My hope is to provide you with the tools and perspective to know that even when you FEEL there is nothing but closed roads, detours and wrong way signs in life, you KNOW you possess the power to strive for, obtain and maintain THROUGH and OVER it all.

My approach to therapy is integrative as I tailor therapy to fit the unique needs of each individual. I also believe in a holistic therapeutic perspective-exploring the mental, physical, emotional and spiritual needs of each client and support maintaining a healthy balance in life. When indicated, I incorporate holistic nutrition and lifestyle education into my work. I offer individual, couple, and group counseling. With 25+ years of clinical expertise, I specialize in treating clients with anxiety and depression, relationship issues, life transitions, trauma recovery, nutrition and mental health, and multicultural challenges.
