About Maggie

Maggie Peters is a licensed mental health counselor in Indiana who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, ADHD, depression, and related concerns. She centers her work on building self-compassion, improving communication, and strengthening coping skills.

Background and approach

Clients who are navigating mood disorders, anger, panic, isolation, or caregiver stress will find an approach grounded in empathy and practical strategies. With ten years of clinical experience, Maggie draws from several evidence-informed methods to tailor care to each person's needs.

She blends acceptance-based techniques, cognitive-behavioral skills, emotion-focused work, and mindfulness practices to address symptoms and the life circumstances that sustain them. Maggie aims to create an affirming, collaborative environment where clients can explore identity, process past trauma, and move toward clearer values and purpose.

Her practice emphasizes steady growth, improved relationships, and tools for managing everyday challenges.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values, helping clients take meaningful action even when emotions are uncomfortable. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety, panic, and low mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on understanding and reshaping emotional responses in relationships to improve connection and communication.

Choosing the right approach is part of the collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to explore which methods align with their goals, preferences, and the challenges they bring, adapting techniques over time as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varying schedules and comfort levels. These options make it possible to maintain continuity of care from home or other settings and to use tools from CBT, ACT, and EFT in practical, session-friendly ways.
