I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over ten years of experience helping clients strengthen their mental and emotional well-being. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and focused on helping you build confidence in your ability to create change. I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, stress, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Using Solution-Focused Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I help clients identify their strengths, reframe unhelpful thought patterns, and develop practical tools for daily life. As a Certified Case Manager specializing in mental health, I also assist clients in connecting with additional supports and community resources when needed. My goal is to provide a safe and encouraging space where you can explore what’s holding you back, rediscover your strengths, and move forward with clarity and purpose.

As a client centered therapist, I use storytelling and narrative therapy to harness and highlight your strengths. Our work together is collaborative, engaging you in cognitive processing and motivational interviewing to address parts of yourself impacted by trauma and stuck in repetitive story loops. During our sessions, you will gain and practice new skills to reduce and manage shame, guilt, anxiety, and grief. Success is achieved when we establish a trusting and supportive space, and you gain confidence in using new skills to consistently engage in more functional behaviors, ultimately feeling a deeply centered sense of self and personal capacity. I specialize in supporting young professionals in their mid-30s and older who are navigating challenges related to depression, anxiety, family roles, and life and relationship transitions. Together, we work on shifting behaviors rooted in trauma or maladaptive patterns from the family of origin, culture, and community.

Hello my name is Margaret Banks. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have experience working with people from many different backgrounds. I have worked in crisis intervention, healthcare, corrections, and private practice. Are you feeling unhappy, unmotivated, or simply stuck in life? I want to help you get on track to feeling better. I have helped people facing challenges of grief and loss, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, communication issues, codependency, self-esteem, forgiveness, and infidelity, just to name a few. I understand finding the right therapist to assist you through this difficult time in your life is very important. If you don’t have a connection with your therapist, you won’t be able to make the progress that you are hoping to achieve. I believe exploring childhood experiences are very important simply because those experiences can often shape adulthood experiences. If there are unresolved issues from the past, people may find themselves engaging in reoccurring maladaptive behaviors until those issues are resolved. I want to collaborate with you and offer guidance through the journey of healing.

Long term problems do not necessarily require long term solutions. By employing the latest evidence based treatments, I aim to maximize durable change in the least amount of time. As my client, you will find me to be a patient & empathic listener. I strive to view life through your eyes so that I can be best positioned to help you attain rapid improvement. Together we will develop a plan that targets your areas of concern. As part of the therapy process, I will teach you empowering techniques that will enable you, after you leave therapy, to become your own master therapist to yourself. I utilize the latest innovations in Cognitive Behavior Therapy, as well as other approaches, to help clients resolve their issues as quickly as possible, saving you time and money. One of the exciting things about the therapy I employ is that problems start to be seen as opportunities for growth, rather than obstacles to happiness. My clinical experience is broad and varied. It ranges from those very significantly impaired by mental illness to clients seeking guidance in making a career choice. I also have training in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), an evidenced based short-term therapy. Open to working with children/adolescents 13 years and older.

As a licensed certified professional counselors, I like to meet my clients right where they are. In individual sessions, each client is uniquely served with objection and empathy. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy is my theoretical orientation. What we think and the way we think affects our behavior. Couple therapy requires active participation. Couples will engage in exercises to create a deeper understanding of one another. Both parties must give one another time to heal, to understand, and to experience how rich love can be. I take a non-judgmental approach toward my clients. My empathetic spirit enables my clients to feel safe as they share their concerns. It is my desire to empower my clients as we work together to embrace coping skills so that my clients can be encouraged to live a higher quality of life.
