About Margaret

Margaret Booth began her professional path working with people in the United Kingdom over the past 14 years. She holds NCPS as a credential and has focused her practice on everyday problems such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She presents as a calm and respectful counsellor who adapts conversations to what each person needs.

Margaret helps people who are coping with grief and loss or big life changes.

Background and approach

She also supports those managing addictions, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, or issues with intimacy. Practical concerns such as sleep, eating, parenting and career worries are part of her work too. Her approach draws on well-known methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy.

She also uses Attachment-Based and Client-Centred ideas to focus on relationships and the person in the room. Sessions aim to be collaborative and geared towards achievable steps. Clients can expect straightforward conversation about what is happening now and what small changes might help.

She will listen, reflect, and work with each person to set realistic goals. The emphasis is on coping strategies that fit daily life. Margaret describes her role as supporting and empowering people through change.

She tailors the plan to individual needs and moves at a pace the person can manage. That practical, steady style is intended to make reaching for a happier life feel more possible.

Sessions & fees

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unwanted thoughts and choose actions that match their values rather than getting stuck in thought patterns. It can help when anxiety, low mood or life changes make everyday choices feel overwhelming.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical skills for changing unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep trouble and anger by offering concrete exercises and experiments to try between sessions.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and how early connections affect present-day trust and intimacy. It can help people who want to understand how they relate to others and build healthier bonds.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and the therapist works collaboratively to decide what fits best. Margaret will listen to what matters most, discuss options and try methods that suit the person's goals and preferences. Plans can be adjusted as work proceeds so the therapy remains relevant.

Online therapy gives practical flexibility through video calls, phone conversations, live chat and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow visual connection for exercises and conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day, and chat or messaging suits quick check-ins or shorter reflective work. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel.
