About Margot
Margot Myers is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Licensed Independent Social Worker with Clinical Practice (LISW-CP) practicing in Pennsylvania. She has 29 years of experience and lists stress, anxiety, mood disorders, trauma and abuse, parenting, relationship and family concerns among the issues she works with. Margot also notes work with grief, career questions, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
She takes a direct, collaborative approach in sessions. She works with people to name what matters and set practical, achievable goals. Sessions often include talk, skills practice, and steps to try between meetings. She uses methods such as client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and EMDR to address specific concerns.
Her background includes a master’s degree in social work from Virginia Commonwealth University and many years working in community settings such as homes, outpatient clinics, schools, and universities. That experience informs a focus on real-life problems like caregiver stress, blended family issues, chronic illness, and family of origin issues.
Margot is LGBTQI+ affirming and has substantial experience helping people handle life transitions and post-traumatic stress. She frames therapy as a partnership where the person’s goals guide the work. Practical change, clearer communication, and symptom relief are common aims discussed early in treatment.
People who want to explore how patterns from their family of origin shape current relationships often find the focus helpful. To begin, readers are encouraged to review her online therapy options and complete the short matching questionnaire to schedule a first session.
Therapeutic approaches used in remote sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and perspective. The therapist listens, reflects, and helps people decide what they want to work on and which next steps make sense for them.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical exercises. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and managing stress with clear skill-building tasks.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a method for working with distressing memories and strong emotional reactions. It uses structured processing to reduce the intensity of those reactions and can be paired with other approaches.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped before. Together they pick methods and adjust them as needed so the sessions stay useful and focused on real-life change.
Confirm current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific online options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example by avoiding travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or reducing the need for time away from work. Licensed professionals can use different session lengths and rhythms to match schedules and goals, and the clinician will recommend what fits best for each person.
