About Peggy

Peggy aims to meet each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion as they begin therapy.

Background and approach
Peggy draws on several therapy methods to address specific problems. She uses client-centered work to prioritize what matters most to the person and cognitive behavioral techniques to spot and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Motivational interviewing supports change when someone feels stuck or unsure about next steps.
Sessions often focus on concrete goals such as better sleep, managing panic or anxiety, or improving communication. She also helps people cope with grief, anger, and life changes like separation or career transitions. For those with mood disorders or ADHD, she works on strategies to improve daily routines and reduce overwhelm.
Peggy believes starting therapy is an act of courage. She encourages small steps, clear goals, and regular review of progress so people can see what’s working and adjust when needed.
How Peggy’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s priorities and values. In this approach the therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects concerns, and helps people find their own answers, which can be helpful for relationship strain, identity questions, and building confidence.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, moods, and behaviors. Online sessions using CBT often involve identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, trying small behavior changes, and reviewing what helps reduce anxiety, panic, or low mood.
Motivational interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or unsure about change. It uses gentle questions and reflection to strengthen motivation and set practical next steps for things like improving routines, addressing substance use, or tackling procrastination related to ADHD.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust plans based on what works. Clients have a say in pacing, focus, and which techniques to keep using.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people work face to face from wherever they are, phone sessions can fit a busy day or lower bandwidth, live chat is useful for short check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule consistent care and maintain progress around daily life.
