Margaret Bianchi

Therapist

Virtual • Dayton, OH


I have been a licensed mental health therapist for over 11 years, and have experienced nearly any challenge one faces when starting therapy. I have a strong passion for my work and I want each person that works with me to feel unconditional care, respect, acceptance, and warmth, while also challenged in a positive way! If you are motivated and have a desire to make improvements, I can help you with any issues bring you into therapy. Taking the first step can feel incredibly difficult, overwhelming, and scary, but is also the beginning of change and growth.

Therapist

Virtual • Ohio


Hi, I am Joe, a licensed mental health therapist. I believe that people are capable of change, which is why I do what I do. It's understandable if you come to therapy feeling low and unmotivated. This is normal. Your first step in coming here is a big deal and not an easy decision or task. That right there is motivation. I believe in a collaborative approach and meeting you where you are in your life. I am not an expert on you, but we can work together to understand what is getting in the way of your goals and make plans to address these areas. I am here to help you figure out what needs to change and to guide you through the process of improving your mental health and growing as a person. I am a caring, open, and non-judgmental person, who loves cats, music, reading, and video games. I enjoy spending time with my friends and family, especially around a bon fire.
