Hello, my name is Margot Logan and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who is licensed in Florida and Massachusetts, where I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. I specialize in family relationships, trauma work, personal growth, and adoption. I am a vocal ally of the LGBTQ+ community. My approach is to meet you where you are and to help you work through whatever you need help with.
My approach
My therapeutic approach can best be described as eclectic. I primarily use insight-oriented therapy and solution focused therapy. However, I pull techniques from other approaches as needed, such as EMDR and CBT. My goal is to do whatever is most comfortable and effective for the individual client.
My focus
I typically work with a variety of clients. I am comfortable treating PTSD and other trauma, family issues, parenting issues, personal situations that are causing distress, and adoption related issues.
My communication style
I have been described many times as an empath. I create a safe space for my clients. I am very understanding of the reluctance that some people have towards starting therapy, and I respect that. Working with me you should feel supported. You should also expect to be gently "pushed" to process your feelings and examine your motivation and behavior.
My journey to mental healthcare
I have always been an empath and desired to help others. On my graduate school application I quoted Elizabeth Barrett Browning's poem "If I can stop one heart from breaking, I shall not live in vain". I still feel this way, and that's what keeps me going.
My goals for you
I approach goal setting with clients as a collaborative process. Goals should always be attainable and individual to the client's needs and wishes.
My first session with you
During the first session you should expect for us to get to know each other. We will move at whatever pace you are comfortable with. I know how overwhelming it can be to open up to a total stranger just because I have initials after my name. I respect that and respect that we need to get to know each other before you will be comfortable sharing with me.
