About Peggy
I’ve worked with a wide variety of clients between outpatient clinic work, inpatient psychiatric facilities, and everything between! In my free time I read and play video games. I’ve learned many ways of coping with anxiety and depression, stress from home or work, along with many other issues. I may not be your typical therapist who is warm and fuzzy, but I’m down to earth and connect with nearly every client I meet. The presenting problems I’ve worked with the most include anxiety, depression, substance abuse, family and couple issues, and communication issues. I will give any client a shot. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions!
