About Maghan
Maghan views Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, as a primary tool because changing unhelpful thoughts can shift emotions and actions. She pairs that approach with narrative and mindfulness techniques to help people rewrite stressful stories and build present-moment skills. Motivational interviewing is used when someone needs help finding motivation to make life changes.
Her background includes a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Maghan has six years of mental health experience and early volunteer work that shaped her approach. She has worked with people across a wide age span and in several care settings.
In practice, she looks for techniques that fit each person rather than one fixed method. That can include structured CBT exercises, short mindfulness practices, or talking through the life story to identify strengths. She emphasizes skills people can use between sessions.
Maghan has experience with adoption and foster care situations and has worked in the foster care system in Nashville, Tennessee. Her work has included attention and impulse concerns, panic attacks, depression, grief, and self-esteem challenges. She encourages steady progress and collaboration as people work toward clearer goals.

How Maghan’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s goals at the center and invites honest conversation about what is most important. This helps with relationship issues, self-esteem, and parenting concerns by building a trusting working relationship. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and practicing small behavior changes; it is useful for anxiety, panic attacks, depression, and stress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches short attention and breathing practices that reduce flooding from strong emotions and increase calm in stressful moments.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to select techniques that match your needs, goals, and preferences. Together you can test approaches and adjust them if something is not working.
