Margaret Wallace, LMFT

Margaret Wallace, LMFT

Psychotherapist
CA
I specialize in treating individuals who suffer from chronic, persistent depression or difficulty regulating emotions and find themselves using substance abuse or other unhealthy behaviors to manage their symptoms. I join with my clients to uncover what is maintaining those unhealthy patterns and help them learn new skills to cope. I also work with clients to identify how developmental trauma from childhood influences their coping style and assist them in developing self-compassion and acceptance as part of the healing process. My foundation is in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and I believe this approach is invaluable in offering concrete and goal-oriented treatment. I also use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which I find especially useful with persistent depression. Bottom line-the approach should fit the individual! I hold a Master's degree in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University, which has equipped me with a strong clinical background to support my work. I look forward to speaking with you and creating an individualized plan to address your needs. Patience, compassion, and a sense of humor are my most valuable tools. Today is the day to start the journey toward healing.
