About me

Hello!

I am an LCSW working with teens and their families for over 20 years in both school based and therapeutic settings. In my career I have worked with young people struggling with depression, self harm, sexual identity issues, anxiety, peer conflicts, ADHD, divorce, proper use of technology and family based conflicts. Meeting with both parents and teens we have found methods for combatting these presenting problems to make the home life better and to increase school achievement.

I like to work with families as a whole to build better communication and understanding. I realize that while teens are struggling to gain their independence and sense of self, their parents are trying to find that balance between setting boundaries and letting their child chart their own course. Adolescence is tough on both parent and child -- however, with focus and communication, these years can be a time of great growth and connection. I am here to help!

Margaret is really sweet. She has a good perspective to offer, and I always like it when she throws in something lighthearted. It helps for her to gently joke with me when I'm feeling a bit bleak.

Margaret has been so wonderful. I was amazed at how quickly she picked up on my personality type and was able to tailor her support to my specific emotional and mental needs. She asks the right questions and offers empathy without judgement. She is so smart and caring and has already made a big difference in my life in a matter of a few short weeks. She has my gratitude and I would encourage anyone to seek her counsel.

I'm really lucky to have been matched with Margaret. She has helped me through some difficult emotions and situations. She really cares about how I'm doing and had shown me that I can trust. I don't know what I would do without her continued support.

Margaret has been wonderful. She has helped me more in two weeks than someone I've been going to for over a year. Margaret truly listens and cares and I can tell she puts effort into her responses. She understands and the way she responds makes me feel comfortable and allows me to be more open.

It's only been a few weeks but I can't believe how much Margaret has helped with things that have been bothering me for years. I would recommend her to anyone who might be a little apprehensive about seeing a therapist for the first time, she really made me feel comfortable and safe.

Work with me!
