Getting to know Margret Canty
I’m a Licensed Master Social Worker who supports children, adolescents, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, life transitions, and relationship challenges. I take a person-centered, strengths-based approach, helping clients build resilience, develop healthy coping skills, and create meaningful change in a safe and supportive environment.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I draw from evidence-based practices including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and play therapy. I believe in meeting each client where they are and tailoring treatment to their unique needs, strengths, and goals.
With experience in school-based settings, I’ve developed a strong understanding of the emotional, social, and developmental challenges young people face. I’m passionate about helping clients recognize their strengths, build confidence, and explore who they are becoming. My goal is to create a warm, welcoming space where clients feel encouraged, empowered, and truly heard.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
When you are ready to get started, schedule an initial assessment visit (intake) through Zocdoc. After you book an appointment, a care coordinator will reach out to review your method of payment and/or insurance number and answer any initial questions you may have before our first visit.
