Professional statement

Margaret Rocca is a New Hampshire Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC), Massachusetts Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), and Vermont Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC Interim Telehealth) a who helps individuals through out adulthood, with a passion for helping clients in transitional periods of adulthood. Margaret has experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, relationship issues, & trauma and abuse. She believes in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.

As a clinician, Margaret embraces a unique therapy approach, and borrows from many different theoretical bases for psychotherapy in aiming to understand and meet the individual needs of each person and of each couple. These theories include cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, reality-based, mindfulness-based and family systems theories. Techniques include dialogue, psycho education, relaxation, reframing of negative thoughts, positive decision-making, role-play, mindfulness or homework/assignments.

With a background in addiction and trauma Margaret works to bring a realistic approach to therapy. It is her goal to help clients utilize the tools they have, identify the tools need to change or improve, and provide support and challenging (when necessary) to help clients stay accountable towards change.

At this time Margaret conducts all of her sessions remotely via HIPAA-compliant software and includes Business Associate Agreements.


Message to clients

Clients seeking to work with me can expect that we will work on identifying patterns of behaviors that may be causing them harm at this time. In addition we will focus on identifying alternative coping skills, and challenging current thought patterns. I'm here to support, validate, and challenge you in a safe space.

We will work together to establish realistic and attainable goals for you to achieve. These goals are flexible and we may modify them throughout the therapy process as your needs change. Active participation in and out of session is essential to your success. I may assign tasks between appointments to help strengthen the skills you acquire during therapy and empower you to resolve issues after the therapeutic relationship has ended.
