Margeaux Groene

Margeaux Groene

Therapist

Virtual • Virginia


Hi, I'm Margeaux Groene, a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in the Commonwealth of Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. I bring a wealth of experience and passion to my work with adolescents and adults seeking help with anxiety disorders, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress disorders (PTSD), and substance use disorders. Originally from Tidewater, Virginia, I graduated from Calvin College with a Bachelor of Arts in Organizational Communication and earned my Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Liberty University. During my counseling internship, I focused on the effective use of telehealth treatment with the adolescent population. I am skilled in the treatment of substance use disorders, anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, and co-occurring disorders such as depression and trauma. My previous positions with Synergy Counseling LLC, Caron Treatment Center’s Northern Virginia location, and most recently, New Paradigm Recovery, have given me years of experience working in partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient settings. These experiences have honed my specialization in the treatment of co-occurring substance use disorders and PTSD. My passion for working with clients suffering from unresolved trauma and clinically treatable PTSD led me to obtain training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) through the EMDRIA-approved Center for Excellence in EMDR Therapy in January 2022. Let's work together to help you achieve your goals and improve your well-being!
