My personal philosophy in life is that you can do anything you set your mind to when you have the support and faith to spur you forward. Without support or a belief system, I believe it’s harder if not impossible to be a better/matured version of yourself. If you have felt stuck or felt unmotivated by life's present challenges or past hurts and pains or just overwhelmed by it all, You have a place to find that comfort, guidance, and solutions, where it was believed there, were not.

My style and beliefs are to create a safe environment within which individuals, couples, and families can explore their issues and challenges. I do this using brief solution focused therapy embedded in a narrative view. This means that I assist people in seeing their lives in more healthy ways as they overcome the challenges in their lives. This occurs in an atmosphere of empowerment and growth.

We all desire happiness, fulfillment and peace - but how do we get there when we feel like we have so little control over our situations? Healthy individuals and relationships are the cornerstone of our well-being, however, at times we all feel like we have lost control or are overwhelmed by challenges and changes in our lives. As a Marriage and Family Therapist I will help you recognize and change ineffective, repetitive or destructive patterns of thoughts, communication and behavior in a safe, supervised atmosphere. Together we will focus on strengths, healthy interactions, goals and solutions to achieve positive changes in your life and relationships.

Searching for a therapist can often feel overwhelming when you already feel sad, hopeless or lost. It takes courage to consider that something in your life is not working, that you could use help. Therapy allows you to get acquainted with yourself and the world you inhabit in a new way. Through this expanded field of view, you are better equipped to make choices that will help you achieve. During our time together, I will walk beside you as we navigate the newness around us. We will work on various techniques and learn new skills to help you cope with the vast and sudden changes.

Whether you're struggling with a specific issue or just have the feeling there should be more to life, I can help you explore possibilities for change. My goal is to provide my clients with the knowledge and understanding of how relationships work and how problems can be resolved in the most challenging situations. I believe every person grows from the positive and negative relationships they've been in or are currently in. It is my mission to help clients establish resources and build upon strengths to enhance happiness in every relationship.

Hi - Margaret Doherty here! Transitions in our lives can bring up a lot of different emotions. Some of these emotions can be conflicting if the transition “should” be happy. My work focuses on individuals and couples as they navigate through these transitions. There are ways to process it, work through it and allow you to show up authentically for yourself and your relationships. Your emotions are valid and your reactions are safety mechanisms learned through your survival of your experiences. My goal is to help you navigate through these changes, learn about yourself and build a meaningful life.

I know how difficult life can be and how changes can be challenging. Helping clients build strong relationships with themselves and others throughout the lifespan using a strengths-based perspective is the foundation of my work. When times get difficult, I work with clients to get them back on track using their proven strengths and talents while utilizing a collaborative approach to facilitate healing. If you are between the ages of 0 and 150 and are looking for support and encouragement in a therapeutic setting, give me a call or send me an email. I would love to help! I have private, virtual sessions available.
