Introduction

Margaret is passionate about helping people (re)discover confidence, hope, and self-love. She recognizes the many ways that experiences, environments, and larger societal systems impact each of us. Grounded in mindfulness, parts work, and compassion-based practices, she supports folks in breaking through false narratives about who they "should" be, so they can focus on who they are. Therapy with Margaret involves weekly 50-minute sessions, and can occur as brief-therapy or in long-term form. While Margaret does not take insurance, she does provide superbills that you can submit to your insurance for reimbursement. Contact your insurance provider or try Reimbursify to check if you have out-of-network (OON) coverage.
