Margaret Michelle Roberts , LPCC

Margaret Michelle Roberts is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing in Kentucky with more than nine years of experience working as an addictions therapist and clinical leader. She has supported people facing a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, relationship and parenting difficulties, career challenges, substance use disorders, low motivation or treatment resistance, and the effects of physical trauma or emotional abuse.

Her therapeutic stance is accepting and open, grounded in respect, sensitivity, and compassion while also inviting clients to stretch toward their goals. Her work blends cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, and person-centered techniques to address thoughts, behaviors, and the practical steps that support change. She has also earned Basic Certification in A-CRA, an evidence-based approach that promotes prosocial behaviors through community involvement and positive reinforcement, particularly with adolescents.

Margaret emphasizes a strengths-based, collaborative process that meets people where they are and builds on existing resources. She encourages steady progress rather than perfection and partners with clients to clarify priorities and pursue meaningful change over time.

Therapeutic Approaches and Accessible Online Care

Margaret draws from several established approaches to tailor care to each person's needs. Client-centered therapy focuses on empathy, active listening, and partnership, helping people feel understood while identifying their own goals and strengths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines the links between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, offering practical strategies for conditions such as anxiety, depression, stress, and difficulties with coping. Mindfulness therapy encourages present-moment awareness and skills for regulating emotion and reducing reactivity, which can be useful for stress, mood concerns, and managing impulses.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Margaret collaborates with clients to explore which methods fit their preferences, goals, and life circumstances, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds so the plan stays relevant and achievable.

Online therapy with Margaret can be scheduled via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to connect from home, while still working with licensed professionals who use evidence-informed approaches to support recovery, growth, and day-to-day coping.
