Getting to know Margo De La Cruz

I work primarily with adults who are thoughtful, self-aware, and often hard on themselves, even when they’re doing “all the right things.” Many of the people I work with are navigating high stress, anxiety, burnout, and layered relationship dynamics. My approach is both practical and deep: we’ll work on tools you can use day-to-day, while also tending to the underlying stories, beliefs, and emotional wounds that make certain patterns so hard to shift.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I’m real with people, and I invite you to be real too. You do not have to show up polished or with the right words. I will be curious about your world, I don't see you as your symptoms, and we will decide together what feels most important to pay attention to. My job is to help you feel understood, supported, and more connected to yourself, not judged or fixed.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

In our first few sessions, we will get clear on what is bringing you in, what life feels like day to day, and what you are hoping therapy might support. We will explore what feels most important to focus on and how you would like us to work together, and we will keep checking in about what is and is not feeling helpful as we go. I pay close attention to your needs and pacing so that nothing feels forced or pressured, and I aim to create a space that is honest and collaborative. We might slow down to notice what is happening internally, name patterns that keep repeating in your life or relationships, and gently explore earlier experiences that still shape how you move through the world now.
