More about Margaret
- 6 years' experience

- BACP
My name is Margaret, I am a qualified, experienced counsellor who has experience working with a wide variety of people who have many different reasons for seeking help. Before I qualified as a Therapeutic Counsellor I worked in the helping professions in the areas of mental health and learning disability for fifteen years. Since qualifying, my main focus and experience has been in trauma recovery. I have a passion for helping people grow to where they want to be.
Our sessions will have a pluralistic focus which means we will work in collaboration with each other, where your input into what works for you, balanced with my training and experience of what may be helpful and safe, will determine the pace, input and nature of the therapy.
I offer an open and safe space where you can be heard without judgement. I offer an invitation to talk through your emotions, relationships, patterns of behaviour, beliefs and their origins. This can help you discover new ways of experiencing that can move you towards the life you would like for yourself.
My aim is to facilitate the process by listening deeply to try to truly understand and feed back to you so that you can see things from a different perspective, and get to know how they affect your life. By talking through and understanding yourself, learning why you may react in ways that are holding you back, you can begin to build a more positive relationship with yourself and live your life the way you would like to.
I work from the perspective that you are the only one who truly knows you. I am guided by you and your preferences for the way we work together, whether you feel more suited to having space to explore yourself, guided exploration of your past and inner self or more interactive strategies to work with. Together, we can work towards the person you want to be through understanding, increasing self-awareness, building self-esteem, finding more helpful patterns and developing your relationship with yourself. The longest journey begins with the first step, I hope you will take that step for yourself today.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
