Peggy would describe her therapy style as warm, humorous and strengths-focused.
“My goal is to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients. I view therapy as a collaborative process where we seek to increase insight into life patterns and dynamics to reach the client's goals. I believe that a key to success in the process is honoring and utilizing the expertise of the individual in their own unique life experiences.”
