About Margot

Margot Williams is a Licensed Independent Social Worker with 25 years of experience helping people cope with stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and depression. She also supports clients dealing with relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strains, career changes, ADHD, and issues tied to adoption or family separation. She responds to new clients with calm and plainspoken care.

Sessions focus on collaboration - setting clear, achievable goals together. Margot uses a strengths-based approach and practical tools so people leave with steps they can try between sessions.

Background and approach

Her work draws on attachment-based ideas to understand how past relationships shape current patterns. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy methods to reduce distress and build flexibility. Mindfulness and client-centered techniques are part of her toolbox as well.

Margot pays attention to cultural background and personal values. She asks questions, listens closely, and avoids assumptions. That helps her tailor plans so they fit each person’s life and beliefs.

People can expect straightforward conversations and problem-focused homework when appropriate. Margot aims to help people find clearer choices, feel less stuck, and manage everyday challenges with more confidence.

Online support

Attachment-informed approaches and online care

Margot uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns in connections and closeness. This approach helps when people notice repeating relationship problems, fear of abandonment, or difficulty trusting others.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy - ACT focuses on noticing painful thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match personal values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and adjusting to life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior experiments to reduce distress and build coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Margot will talk with each person about their goals, past experiences, and preferences. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as needed in later sessions.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for quick check-ins, and text messaging supports short updates or brief exercises. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to keep consistent momentum between meetings.
