    About Margaret

    Margaret Michelle Roberts is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) in Kentucky with nine years of experience. She presents a calm, accepting approach and focuses on helping people make steady progress rather than chasing perfection. Her style aims to meet each person where they are and build on their strengths.

    She has substantial experience in addiction work and has served as an addictions therapist and clinical leader. People come to her for help with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, bipolar concerns, and substance use challenges. She also supports those coping with grief, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, and relationship or intimacy-related issues.

    Her approach blends client-centered methods with cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused strategies. She also uses mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing to help people find and strengthen their own reasons for change. Sessions tend to focus on practical steps, skill building, and realistic goal-setting.

    Margaret has worked with parenting and career concerns, ADHD, social anxiety, and the difficulties that come with life transitions like divorce or separation. She also addresses guilt, shame, impulsivity, and isolation, helping people reconnect with purpose and self-love.

    Her work style is respectful and direct. She partners with clients, offering support and challenges aimed at reaching meaningful, manageable progress over time.

  2. How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions

    Margaret uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons to change and to build momentum when motivation feels low. This approach focuses on listening and thoughtful questions that help someone clarify values and decide on next steps.

    She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes respectful, nonjudgmental listening and meeting people where they are. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice different coping skills for anxiety, depression, and mood concerns.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. Margaret will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best for their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts strategies over time so the plan stays practical and relevant.

    If you are considering online therapy, confirm available session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Many people find that focusing on skill practice, planning, and goal-setting translates well to virtual meetings, while quieter or lower-bandwidth options can help when schedule constraints make a longer video session difficult.
