About Margaret

Margaret Michelle Roberts is an LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in Kentucky with nine years of clinical experience. She focuses on addictions, mood and anxiety concerns, relationship and parenting struggles, and trauma and abuse. She also works with issues such as grief, anger, self-esteem, ADHD, and life transitions.

Her practice emphasizes straightforward, person-centered care. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps. She uses cognitive-behavioral strategies alongside solution-focused and narrative techniques to help people change unhelpful patterns and make small, steady progress.

Margaret has a background as an addictions therapist and clinical leader. That work included helping people with substance use problems, motivation for change, and returning to healthier routines. She has also supported people coping with physical or emotional abuse and with the effects of major life changes like divorce and separation.

In sessions she combines listening with direct feedback and collaborative planning. She draws on motivational interviewing to address ambivalence and build readiness for change. Mindfulness techniques are used to help manage stress, anxiety, and strong emotions.

People meet to set realistic, measurable steps and then track progress. She describes her approach as open and respectful while still offering thoughtful challenge. The aim is steady improvement rather than instant fixes.

Margaret offers therapy in English from Kentucky. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful working relationship. It helps people feel understood and decide their own next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and uses practical skills to change patterns that cause distress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and manage strong emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they will choose which methods to try first. That collaborative choice can change over time as progress is tracked.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing a shorter check-in during a break, or avoiding the need to be on camera when that feels difficult. Licensed professionals adapt these approaches to remote work so practical tools from CBT, mindfulness exercises, and motivational conversations can still be used effectively in sessions.
