01About Maggie
Maggie Lemley is a licensed professional counselor with over 15 years of experience in mental health. She offers a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through what’s overwhelming them. Her work focuses on helping clients gain awareness and process strong emotions so they can move forward.
She has held roles across community mental health, including case management and intensive outpatient work. That background means she is familiar with complex, long-term mental health needs and crisis-informed care.
Background and approach
She has also provided therapy in correctional and military-involved settings. Maggie keeps learning through regular professional trainings and conferences. Her continuing education has included trauma-focused approaches, dialectical behavior strategies, and workshops on communication, military culture, and alternative lifestyles.
She brings those practical skills into sessions rather than relying on one fixed method. In the therapy room she aims to reduce emotional suffering efficiently. Sessions are direct and goal-oriented while staying empathetic and respectful.
She helps clients notice patterns, try new coping skills, and practice better ways of relating to themselves and others. Common concerns she addresses include anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting stress, ADHD, and career-related challenges. Maggie also works with issues like eating and sleeping difficulties, intimacy concerns, compassion fatigue, and bipolar disorder.
People who choose her often want clear tools and straightforward guidance. She offers multiple online formats to fit different routines and comfort levels, and she helps clients match therapy to their practical needs.

Evidence-based approaches and how they work online
Maggie uses evidence-based techniques that emphasize skills and emotional processing. One approach focuses on trauma-informed methods that help clients name and process painful memories while building coping skills to manage strong reactions. This approach can help with trauma, abuse, grief, and intense emotional responses.Another common set of techniques centers on dialectical behavior strategies that teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These skills are useful for anxiety, anger, relationship difficulties, and situations where emotions feel overwhelming.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust based on what is helpful. Clients and therapist work together to track progress and pick strategies that match preferences and needs.
Online therapy formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and demonstrations. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging offer brief, flexible ways to stay connected between sessions or to share thoughts when writing feels easier. These options increase accessibility and help people maintain continuity of care.
