LPCC, 10 years of experience
New to Grow
My name is Margaret Whitmore, and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. I began working in the mental health field in 2015 as a case manager. In 2019, I graduated with my master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling and Art Therapy from Ursuline College. I am dedicated to providing counseling services to those looking to reignite their spark in life.
During this initial meeting, our primary focus will be to collaboratively identify your personal goals for therapy. We will also explore any potential barriers or challenges that might be currently preventing you from achieving these goals. This foundational discussion will help us create a clear path forward and tailor our work to your specific needs.
Clients experience growth when they choose to work with me because I have a natural ability to deeply understand, validate, and reflect their life experiences. Many feel comfortable to opening up early on, which allows us to quickly get to the heart of the challenges and patterns that brought them to therapy. I take pride in connecting with people from every background. My goal is for you to feel seen, heard, and supported as you grow and move toward the life you want and deserve.
I provide compassionate, culturally responsive therapy for people carrying heavy, often unspoken pressures—whether from roles, relationships, identity, or life transitions. My goal isn’t just to treat a diagnosis, but focus on supporting you in reconnecting with your most authentic self. We have all been faced with circumstances that lead us away from our WHY. At Spark33, I will support you in releasing the weight of expectations so you can move toward an empowered, self-assured way of living that reignites your spark.
As a culturally responsive therapist, I provide a space where your identity, lived experiences, and emotions are seen, heard, and respected. Whether you're navigating cultural expectations, identity stress, or generational patterns, our work will center your voice and your healing—without judgment.
I support clients in improving their emotions, self image, and behaviors by changing unhelpful thought patterns.
