About Margaret
Margaret Johnson is an LPC who helps people manage anger and other strong emotions. She focuses on practical steps people can use day to day. Margaret listens first and follows the client's concerns when planning each session.
She draws on 20 years of experience and a background in psychology and existential therapeutic studies. Her work emphasizes emotional awareness and making choices that fit the person’s life. Sessions often include mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing to build more constructive habits.
Background and approach
Margaret also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, commonly called EMDR, for people coping with traumatic memories and related symptoms. She pairs that with wellness and recovery strategies when substance use or addiction are part of the picture. The idea is to combine brief tools with deeper processing so change can feel both immediate and lasting.
Her style is strengths-based and straightforward. She helps people recognize patterns, try new behaviors, and measure progress in small steps. Clients who want to work on relationships, intimacy, life transitions, or identity concerns will find a practical focus on goals and choices.
Margaret practices in Pennsylvania and offers sessions in English. She accepts international clients and asks that people confirm current session formats before booking. To begin, people use the site’s Start Therapy button to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session.

Approaches Margaret lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist names and does not check training records.
How these approaches fit into online therapy
Margaret uses Existential Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as core tools in her work. Existential Therapy helps people name what matters to them, face life choices, and find purpose when things feel stuck. It’s useful for stress, life transitions, and questions about meaning. EMDR is a method for processing distressing memories that can reduce the intensity of trauma-related reactions and support recovery from post-traumatic stress and abuse.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about their goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan as progress is made. Clients are invited to give feedback so the work stays focused and useful.
Before booking, confirm which session formats are currently offered since the biography does not list them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins, or enabling work around a workday or caregiving schedule. Many people find it helps them keep momentum between sessions while still addressing deep issues like trauma, addiction, and relationship strain.
