Taylor Allie
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC
You are not your thoughts, feelings, or the things that have happened to you, but that is easy to forget, so I use a mindfulness-based approach to therapy that helps you remember.
By infusing techniques from Buddhist Psychology, DBT, IFS, and ACT throughout the therapeutic journey, I will support you in actualizing your goals and deepening your relationship with yourself and others.
Attaining inner-peace within a chaotic world is not impossible but it requires regular practice. Perhaps I can offer you a safe, collaborative, and compassionate space for us to practice together.

Margaret Graham
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Add together truth, practicality, and yearning. Pull out an evidence-based toolkit, add a robust dose of woo, and together, we'll unpack what you're facing and craft a pathway forward, one where you'll feel equipped to handle what you're experiencing. I've worked as a therapist for more than a decade, most of it via distance platforms. I'm licensed in Colorado, Maryland, and California, which means I can work with clients across three states as they navigate life transitions, relocations, or simply need consistent support wherever they are.

Margaret Graham
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCPC, LPCC
In a world of one-size-fits-all therapy, my practice stands apart through deeply personalized care. I understand that your healing journey is uniquely yours, which is why I never rely on formulaic or cookie-cutter approaches. Instead, I create individualized treatment plans tailored specifically to your needs, history, and goals. I don't tell you what you should do—I help guide you to make the best decisions for yourself.
What sets my practice apart is my commitment to authentic connection and methods rooted in both research and lived experience. Research shows that the single variable correlating most strongly with successful therapy outcomes isn't the specific method used—it's whether you feel genuinely understood and emotionally safe with your therapist. I've built this kind of connection with clients across wildly different backgrounds and circumstances.
My approach blends evidence-based techniques (CBT, ACT, Coherence Therapy, clinical hypnosis) with mindfulness practices and what I call "a healthy dose of woo." I bring the wisdom of clinical training alongside the understanding that comes from my own healing journey, including my experience with parentification and the deep work of unlearning old patterns. This combination allows me to guide you with authentic confidence and practical insight—not just theoretical knowledge.
If you've felt unheard, dismissed, or exhausted by therapy that felt like checking boxes or repeating the same surface-level strategies, you've found a different kind of resource. Many of my clients come to me after years of talk therapy that addressed symptoms without getting to the root of what's creating their struggles. Through my "update your operating system" approach, we access the deeper patterns and beliefs that may have been overlooked in conventional therapy settings.
My style is warm, direct, and refreshingly real—no therapy-speak or pretentious analysis. I trust that when we create the right conditions, your own inner knowing will guide us exactly where we need to go. There's something almost magical about this work when we trust the process.
Consider contacting me if you:
- Are experiencing mild to moderate anxiety, trauma effects, or relationship struggles (rather than acute crises)
- Sense that your current patterns have roots you haven't fully explored or understood
- Are ready for an approach that gets to the "why" behind your struggles, not just symptom management
- Want to develop practical skills and deeper self-understanding to create lasting change
- Value a collaborative partnership where you're not being fixed or rescued, but genuinely supported
I particularly welcome clients who are curious, open to looking at their lives holistically, and ready to do the sometimes uncomfortable work of growth. If you want genuine understanding, practical tools, and someone who has your back as you navigate complex emotions and life challenges, we'll likely be a good match.
