About Margaret
Margaret Michelle Roberts is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) based in Kentucky who blends practical skills with a supportive, person-centered stance.
Background and approach
Drawing on nine years of clinical experience as an addictions therapist and leader, she applies cognitive behavioral techniques alongside solution-focused and client-centered methods to help people navigate depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, parenting stress, career transitions, substance use concerns, and trauma-related challenges. Her work emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and collaborative goal setting while also offering gentle challenges that promote growth.
She has particular experience addressing treatment resistance, low motivation, and adolescents' prosocial engagement through evidence-informed practices. Margaret focuses on building strengths, fostering self-awareness, and encouraging steady progress rather than perfection.
Clients can expect a therapist who meets them where they are, partners with them in treatment, and uses practical interventions aimed at improving daily functioning and emotional well-being. Her approach includes attention to grief, intimacy issues, ADHD symptoms, mood disorders, and broader life changes, with the aim of helping each person create meaningful, sustainable change.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Margaret frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood-related concerns. She also employs Client-Centered Therapy to create an accepting, empathetic space where clients' perspectives guide the pace and focus of work, supporting self-exploration and confidence building. Mindfulness Therapy is used to cultivate present-moment awareness and stress management skills that are helpful for emotional regulation and coping with life changes.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will work with clients to assess goals, preferences, and day-to-day challenges, then combine methods in ways that fit each person's needs rather than applying a single model rigidly. This partnership helps tailor interventions so they feel relevant and practical for the client's life.
Online therapy with Margaret is available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for those balancing work, family, or geographic limitations. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, try different communication styles, and access regular support without commuting, while still focusing on concrete strategies and measurable progress.
