More about Peggy

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMFT

I’ve worked with a wide variety of clients between outpatient clinic work, inpatient psychiatric facilities, and everything between! In my free time I read and play video games. I’ve learned many ways of coping with anxiety and depression, stress from home or work, along with many other issues. I may not be your typical therapist who is warm and fuzzy, but I’m down to earth and connect with nearly every client I meet. The presenting problems I’ve worked with the most include anxiety, depression, substance abuse, family and couple issues, and communication issues. I will give any client a shot. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Peggy is AMAZING!!! She really cares and listens deeply. She helps me think through problems and scenarios and gives me tools/homework to help put me in a better place. Going through a difficult time has been much easier because Peggy is in my life. She is terrific and I'm grateful for her.

I have been seeing Peggy regularly and she has been such a tremendous help to me. I appreciate her thoughtful insight, practical suggestions and her empathy and concern about me as a person. Even after our first session, I left with some awesome ideas that I could immediately implement in my life that would help with my personal situation. I think Peggy would be a great addition to anyone's support team!

I just love my new therapist Ms Peggy. She's attentive, sharp, innovative, and intuitive in her active listening and therapy methodologies. I only just started working with her, but already feel connected and on the right track with managing my life challenges well. Kudos to her!
