About Margot

Margot Williams is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) with 25 years of clinical experience supporting people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, depression, ADHD, relationship and family concerns, and related challenges.

Background and approach

She has worked extensively with individuals affected by adoption and foster care, family separation, attachment issues, and caregiving stress, and she brings experience with both longstanding mood concerns and life transitions. Margot approaches therapy with compassion and collaboration, helping clients set practical goals and drawing on strengths to guide progress.

Her style blends solution-focused work with mindfulness and cognitive strategies to reduce symptoms and increase everyday coping skills. She emphasizes culturally sensitive care, asking questions, listening attentively, and aligning treatment with each person’s values and beliefs.

Clients will find a practitioner who combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-informed perspectives, client-centered listening, and cognitive behavioral techniques to address presenting problems. Scheduling is available on Thursdays, and she offers multiple remote session formats to fit different needs.

Online approaches that meet you where you are

Margot draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify personal values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise; this approach can be useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to explore relational patterns and attachment needs, which can be helpful for relationship difficulties, family of origin issues, and some forms of trauma. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is another tool in her practice, providing structured strategies to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that contribute to depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist partners with each client to consider symptoms, goals, and preferences and will blend techniques as needed rather than relying on a single method. This lets the work adapt over time to what is most helpful.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility for busy schedules and varied needs through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, practice skills between sessions, and access support from home or other convenient locations while coordinating around availability such as her Thursday schedule.
