Margaret offers counseling to individuals, couples, and larger relationship systems that's grounded in compassion. She welcomes you into a space where you can be supported through difficult and vulnerable moments in your relationships and own personal growth. Her therapeutic approach works to meet you where you are to build a deeper understanding of what’s happening now, how we got here, and what to do next.

Your voice and agency are central to the counseling process, and Margaret looks forward to collaborating with you to identify goals and priorities that genuinely make a difference. She is passionate about empowering individuals, couples, and relationship systems to creatively explore meaning, develop resilience, and grow toward the futures they want to live. Her lived experience as a queer, polyamorous nerd informs her work and allows her to foster openness and curiosity without making assumptions. Walking toward your authentic self is rarely easy, but you don’t have to do it alone.

Margaret graduated from Beloit College with a bachelor's degree in modern languages and completed her master's degree in counselor education at University of Wisconsin - Whitewater.
