About Maggie
Maggie French is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) practicing in Ohio with four years of professional experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and major life changes. Sessions focus on practical steps to manage emotions and daily pressures.
Maggie uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside other approaches to look at feelings and interaction patterns. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Conversations are direct and focused on things that make day-to-day life harder.
Her background in social work means attention to real-world problems like caregiving strain, blended family issues, and challenges after separation or divorce. Maggie works with people facing abandonment worries, attachment struggles, and communication problems that keep relationships stuck.
In sessions she practices a client-centered way of listening and responding. That means she prioritizes what matters to the individual and helps them choose steps that fit their situation. Work together includes naming emotional patterns, practicing new ways to respond, and testing changes safely.
Maggie is based in Ohio and offers services in English. The first meeting is a chance to clarify goals and agree on a plan. People who start therapy are invited to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to begin.
Approaches used in online sessions and how they help
Maggie works with Emotionally-Focused Therapy to identify and name difficult feelings and interaction patterns. EFT is often used to help people recognize how emotions shape their responses and to try new ways of connecting with those feelings.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts and make room for them while committing to actions that match their values. Client-Centered Therapy provides a way to keep sessions focused on the individual's priorities and choices rather than a fixed agenda.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Maggie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to use based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That process may involve trying different tools and checking what helps most in everyday life.
Session options are not specified in the biography, so confirm current formats before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time so work or caregiving schedules are easier to manage. Licensed professionals can adapt techniques like EFT and ACT to remote sessions to focus on feelings, behavior changes, and clear next steps.
