I’m Maggie – a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with experience working with children, adolescents, couples, and family-related issues. My systemic approach goes beyond the individual and focuses on challenges within the context of the relationship to facilitate true growth.

My specialties include high sensitivity (big-feeling kids), ADHD, struggles with self-esteem and/or identity, oppositional behaviors/defiance, and childhood trauma/abuse. I also have extensive experience with childhood attachment issues, anxiety, and depression. I believe that building a trusting relationship and allowing the child or teen to be their authentic self in the room are conduits to real change. I also hold the belief that parents and primary caregivers are the experts – and true growth and change comes from a thoughtful, collaborative process.

I’m passionate about supporting parents, including during the pregnancy and postpartum periods. Parenting, for all of its beautiful moments, comes with its fair share of unique challenges. I offer Parent Support sessions separate from, or in combination, with your child’s play therapy.
