About Maggie

Maggie French is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Ohio. She has four years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, and major life changes. She builds a calm space where people can say what they feel and think without judgment.

Her sessions begin by listening. She asks about what is most pressing and what a better day looks like. From there she and the person set simple, practical goals to work toward over time.

Background and approach

Maggie keeps language plain and focuses on steps people can try between meetings. Maggie uses a mix of approaches depending on the situation. She draws on Systemic Therapy to look at patterns in relationships and roles.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts and focus on chosen values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used when habits and thinking patterns need changing. People who come to Maggie often want help with family conflict, caregiving stress, codependency, or recovery from abuse.

She also supports those facing divorce, aging concerns, or the stress that follows a disaster. Her style is steady and practical, aimed at everyday improvements. She holds LCSW and LICSW credentials and works with adults in English.

Sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and pick a time that fits their schedule.

Online support

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Systemic Therapy looks at patterns between people and roles. Online sessions let a therapist help someone notice repeating relationship dynamics and plan different responses. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches people to notice their thoughts and focus on actions tied to personal values. That work can be done over video or messaging with exercises and short practice tasks between sessions. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current connection and trust, and it helps people practice new ways of relating in day-to-day life.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, circumstances, and preferences. Adjustments are made as progress is tracked so the plan stays practical and relevant.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or someone prefers no camera. Live chat and text-based messaging support quick check-ins, brief coaching, or written reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or other commitments.
