Find Peace of Mind
More peace of mind means you’ll have fewer sleepless nights replaying every decision and more moments where you actually feel present in your life. It’s about quieting the constant mental noise so you can breathe, think clearly, and enjoy the little things again.
Build Stronger Family Connections
Imagine stronger family connections where you have fewer blowups and more real conversations, where everyone feels heard and supported. You will rebuild trust, deepen bonds, and create a home that feels calm and connected.
Have Confidence in Your Next Step
Confidence in your next step means trusting yourself again—whether you’re navigating pregnancy, parenting, or major life shifts. It’s about feeling grounded in your choices and knowing you’re doing what’s right for you and your family.
The Triangle is Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill, NC
Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill are full of charm, community, and high expectations—which can feel like both a blessing and a burden for moms. Between keeping up with school pressures, juggling activities, and trying to create the “perfect” childhood, it’s easy to feel like you’re always running on empty. And while it’s a beautiful place to raise a family, being a mom here can sometimes feel isolating—especially when everyone else seems to have it all figured out.
Motherhood can be overwhelming, lonely, and downright exhausting. It doesn’t have to be.
Do You Struggle With?
• Feeling anxious or out of control, even on the “good” days
• Carrying guilt for things you know aren’t your fault
• Snapping at your kids or partner and then feeling awful about it
• Wondering who you even are outside of being a mom
• Worrying you’re not doing enough, no matter how hard you try
• Feeling like no one really sees what you’re going through
You deserve support that actually makes life feel lighter.
I’m Margot—and I help moms feel like themselves again
I know how heavy it can get when you’re trying to keep it all together. The pressure to be the perfect mom (to kids, teens or even adult-children), the guilt that sneaks in when you feel like you failed, the feeling that you’ve somehow disappeared in the chaos. I see it every day—and I’ve lived parts of it myself.
With a PhD in psychology, 25+ years of experience, and certification in perinatal mental health, I’ve helped hundreds of women untangle their stress, reconnect with themselves, and build stronger relationships with their kids, their partners, and most importantly—themselves. You don’t have to do this alone. We can make space for you again.
You deserve to feel calm, confident, and in control.
Why Do Online Therapy?
Online therapy gives you the freedom to see a therapist who SPECIALIZES in exactly what YOU NEED from ANYWHERE you have enough privacy. Imagine being able to do counseling from your parked car, your office, or the privacy and convenience of your own home.
Online therapy allows you to choose from a greater variety of professionals. You can select a Psychologist who sees people just like you every day rather than a therapist who is trying to keep up with treating so many different issues in so many different people. As a result, you can feel more confident they are really good at what they do.
RESEARCH HAS SHOWN ONLINE THERAPY TO BE JUST AS EFFECTIVE AS IN PERSON THERAPY

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I Have Never Been To Therapy Before? What Should I Expect?
That’s completely okay! Many of my clients are new to therapy, and I make the process easy, and comfortable. We’ll start at your pace, and I’ll guide you through every step so you feel supported, not overwhelmed.
Therapy with me is a safe, pressure-free space. We’ll start by discussing what’s on your mind, what’s been weighing you down, and what you hope to get out of therapy. My goal is to help you feel comfortable and supported from day one, no matter where you’re starting from.
Do I need In-Person sessions for therapy to work? What If I don't have time for therapy?
No! Online therapy is just as effective as in-person therapy—and often even more convenient. You’ll get the same personalized support, just from the comfort of your own home, without the stress of commuting or arranging childcare.
I know life is busy, but therapy actually gives you back time by helping you manage stress more effectively. When you feel less overwhelmed, parenting and daily life feel easier. Plus, my online sessions make it easy to fit therapy into your schedule.
How do I know if therapy is right for me? What if Therapy is too Emotionally difficult for me?
If you feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or stuck, therapy can help. You don’t need to be in crisis to benefit from support. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, ADHD, past trauma, or just feeling lost in motherhood, therapy gives you clarity, relief, and a path forward.
Therapy isn’t about forcing you to talk about things you’re not ready for. We’ll go at a pace that feels comfortable and safe for you. My goal is to help you feel supported, not overwhelmed.
What if I Have Tried Therapy Before and It Didn't Help?
What if I’ve tried therapy before and it didn’t help?
Not all therapy is the same. If past experiences didn’t feel helpful, they may not have been the right approach or fit. I will want to know about your past therapy experiences so I can ensure that your therapy is different this time and effective.
