Getting to know Margaret Horwitz

Do you feel like you’re stuck in survival mode, chronically stressed and overwhelmed? Maybe you’re looking to address painful memories and detangle complicated feelings, but don’t know where to start? Or perhaps you feel unfulfilled in your relationships, noticing familiar feelings like insecurity or resentment? Therapy provides us with the unique opportunity to gain clarity around our feelings, needs, and desires while exploring the roots of patterns that are no longer serving us. I have deep respect for the courage it takes to show up for ourselves in this way and believe we can do so with endless curiosity and compassion.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I am passionate about supporting people on their journeys of self-exploration, empowerment, and healing. I have specialized experience working with survivors of intimate partner violence and complex trauma, including criminalized survivors. We’ll work together to explore your unique needs, while honoring your strengths and innate wisdom.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I don’t see myself as an “expert,” rather a skilled and caring partner. My practice is neurodiversity-affirming and informed by both Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy and AEDP. I am also deeply influenced by my abolitionist values and commitment to collective liberation. *Upon booking with me, I will reach out to you via the email you provided to ZocDoc. Please let me know if you are booking with multiple providers as a free phone consult would be more appropriate. Please also indicate if you have specific scheduling needs so I can let you know if I'm able to accommodate you moving forward.

    More information on payments and coverage

    Therapy sessions with me typically occur weekly, although bi-weekly is possible for established clients. I am able to meet via telehealth exclusively (my practice is 100% telehealth with no in-person sessions). I am currently accepting Aetna and UnitedHealthcare and am also an out-of-network provider. This means that you may be eligible to receive reimbursement if your insurance has coverage for out-of-network care. My full fee is $150 per 45-minute individual therapy session.
