Hello, I'm Margaret, but most people call me Maggie. It's truly my passion to walk alongside individuals and couples as they navigate emotional and relational challenges. With a warm and empathetic approach, I aim to create a safe and supportive space where clients feel heard, valued, and empowered to grow. Whether you're seeking to strengthen your marriage, connect better with your children, or deepen your relationship with God, I'm here to help.
​
My counseling style is rooted in biblical principles, combining faith-based insights with practical tools for transformation. I believe that lasting change comes through understanding, compassion, and aligning with God's best for your life. Together, we’ll explore solutions that bring not only relief but also long-term healing and personal growth.

A little about me — I grew up in Los Angeles, where my journey toward ministry began in 1975 after feeling a call to serve. That path led me away from the medical field and toward a lifelong mission to support others in faith and well-being. My husband and I have shared 40 wonderful years together, raising five children and enjoying our growing family of seven grandchildren. We also spent 15 years pioneering and pastoring a church in Southern California, which remains a cherished chapter in my life.

When it comes to credentials, I hold a Master of Arts in Pastoral Counseling and Christian Leadership from Liberty University and a Bachelor of Arts in Human Development from California State University, East Bay. I’m also pursuing my doctorate at Grand Canyon University. I'm a Board Certified Pastoral Counselor (BCPC #0873) certified by the AACC International Board of Christian Care, and a member of the American Association of Christian Counselors (AACC).

I’d be honored to join you on your journey toward healing, growth, and fulfillment. Let’s connect and explore how I can support you.
