Welcome to a Path of Healing and Growth
Are you seeking support to navigate life's challenges, find clarity, and cultivate a greater sense of joy? I'm Maggie Metcalfe, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor dedicated to helping individuals like you build the life they truly desire. With a compassionate and conversational approach, I offer a safe and inclusive space for your personal and professional development.
My Approach
My counseling style is rooted in humanistic and person-centered therapy, integrating motivational interviewing and solution-focused counseling. I believe in working collaboratively to identify barriers and develop a personalized path to healing. My approach is holistic, considering all aspects of your well-being.
Who I Work With
I work with individuals experiencing a range of concerns, including:
I have a deep understanding of employment issues and the unique barriers that can arise due to disability, including mental health. My experience includes 16 years providing foster care for teen girls, 20 years advocating for youth and adults in education and medical arenas, and 16 years as a Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor. I am also informed by my personal experiences with disability in my family and my education within the Queer community regarding the needs of marginalized people. I am an anti-racist and an activist for marginalized people, believing that diversity is our strength and full inclusion is a requirement of a just society.
My Commitment to Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
As a member of the Queer and Poly communities, and with personal experience advocating for many individuals with disabilities, I embrace and appreciate the full spectrum of humanity. I am committed to providing an inclusive environment where your uniqueness is valued and celebrated.
What to Expect
First, we will meet for a free on-line introduction session where you can ask questions and learn about counseling with me. If you decide to work with me, I will send you the usual documents to complete before our first session. If you are using insurance, I will confirm your eligibility. In our first few sessions, we will explore your needs and concerns to build a personalized plan for your personal and career success. I offer immediate openings and am available virtually throughout Washington State and in-person in Bellingham, Washington.
