Hi, I'm Margeaux Groene, a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in the Commonwealth of Virginia. 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!

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, you can expect a warm and welcoming introduction, where we'll discuss your concerns, goals, and how we can work together to support you. I'll also provide an overview of the therapeutic process, addressing any questions or concerns you may have, to ensure you feel comfortable and confident in our journey towards improved well-being.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

I enjoy empowering clients to find relief and freedom from symptoms while addressing underlying triggers, fears, and maladaptive patterns through a collaborative and supportive relationship. I'm excited to continue serving diverse populations of adolescents and adults using an evidence-based, multidisciplinary approach. The approaches used in your therapy may include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and other therapeutic interventions personalized to your individual needs.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My bespoke approach to clinical work sets me apart from other practices. Each of my clients (that means you) receives custom treatment plans, tailored therapeutic interventions, and individualized services to reflect the unique circumstances attracting you to psychotherapy.
