About Margot
Margot Myers is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 29 years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, parenting concerns, and mood disorders. She is LGBTQI+ affirming and aims to help clients make meaningful changes in their lives.
She approaches therapy as a partnership. Sessions focus on the client's goals and practical steps toward them. She listens for what matters most and uses clear, evidence-based methods to address problems.
Background and approach
Margot keeps language straightforward and priorities concrete so parents and busy adults can follow along. Margot trained at Virginia Commonwealth University where she earned a Master of Social Work and later held licensure in Pennsylvania. Much of her career has been community-based work in homes, clinics, schools, and university settings.
That background shaped a practical, flexible style that fits real-life family demands. Her work includes support for trauma, post-traumatic stress, depression, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and relationship struggles. She also helps with caregiver stress, blended family issues, divorce and separation, and coping with major life changes.
In sessions she draws on client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral ideas, EMDR, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. Margot mixes short-term problem solving with deeper work when needed. Parents often appreciate concrete strategies for behavior, communication, and managing overwhelm.
She encourages small, sustainable changes and collaborates on steps that fit each person's life and schedule.

How Margot’s Methods Work Online
Client-centered work means the conversation centers on the person in front of the therapist. The therapist asks about your goals, listens closely, and adapts sessions to what you need. This approach helps with parenting stress, relationship communication, and everyday overwhelm.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. Sessions use straightforward exercises to spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. This method is often useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, targets memories and reactions tied to trauma. In practice it involves guided attention techniques to reduce the intensity of painful memories and their hold on daily life. EMDR can be helpful for post-traumatic stress and trauma-related symptoms.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels tolerable. Together they decide which methods to start with and adjust as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a camera isn’t wanted. Live chat or messaging supports brief check-ins or ongoing coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around parenting schedules, work hours, and busy lives.
