About
Hello, I am Maggie Laventure . For the past three years I have been providing cognitive behavior modification counseling to clients in need. I studied psychology and sociology at Queen's college, and I have earned my first dual baccalaureate degree. As a result of my strong interest in higher education and in social services where I developed a desire to pursue a master's degree in social work. I am currently a graduate from Columbia University with a master's degree in social work. I have an impeccably strong background in social services, with over twenty years of working experience in social services for the Human Services Administration, where I accumulated excellent client services skills. I am a very well-grounded individual who lives with dedication, passion, and grace. I have worked in many different clinical settings. I am a passionate and empathetic therapist with strong counseling abilities and an understanding of interpersonal family relationships. I have experiences leading clients through traumas, depression, and anxiety by using cognitive behavior therapy as well as interpersonal therapy techniques. Through clinical experience, compassion, and empathy I support and assist those willing to make a positive difference in their lives. I pride myself in providing a safe and supportive space, to work side by side to overcome traumas and barriers. I specialized in addressing behavior modification, anxiety, and depression. I am fully committed to listen and offer my best professional practices to help you. Thank you for taking the first step and for allowing me to be part of this very important journey. Looking forward to meeting you!
