Does your life feel like a burden? If yes, I am here to help because I believe that life should feel like a gift. My name is Margaret (Malgorzata) and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who specializes in working with adults and adolescents. Congratulations for taking a step to invest in your well being. I know that the decision we usually make to look for a therapist tends to be bittersweet. I know whatever you're going through could be very hard, but I believe that you could get through it. I am thrilled to help you discover what you need to be successful and happy! I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy techniques to increase your awareness and teach you helpful skills. I help my clients navigate a variety of challenges including symptoms of anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, addictions, self-harm, insomnia, school and work issues, family conflict and relationship problems. My goal as a therapist is to connect you to your identity and to help you embrace who you are, in spite of whatever has happened in your life. I can help you to learn how to manage difficulties related to mental health symptoms, stressful life events and life transitions.
