About Margaret

Margaret Macias - Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist at Honor Your EmotionsYou feel like you’re living in a completely different reality and alone…

…when you or someone you love struggles with mental illness.

People don’t talk about mental illness the way they talk about physical illness… even though our mind is part of our bodies!

The judgement, the misinformation – it can be a lot whether it’s you, your child, a sibling, a parent, spouse, or a partner.

My name is Margaret Macias, and I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (License #LMFT104016) with many years of experience working with individuals and families who are impacted by major depression, anxiety, substance abuse, eating disorders and combinations of various mental illness.

I’ve worked with the mildest of presentations – people who you’d never know had a struggle – and with people who were simply ready to give up on life.

I understand how many questions come up.

I understand how many decisions need to be made, and how much hurt and resentment can build up in an instant over years of dealing with these issues.

I know how hard it is to choose the right person to help you, your child, or family so feel free to call me for a free 15-minute phone consultation.

During this time, we can talk about how you can benefit from therapy and what specific techniques I can use to help you begin the healing process.

SPECIALTIES:

Cognitive behavioral, DBT, creative visualization and Mindfulness, examine family and group patterns, Solution Focused Therapy and Relapse Prevention pertaining to Mental Health.

I will usually integrate different approaches tailored to your particular needs with a special concentration on how the body and mind work together.
