About

Fostering resilience and personalized growth, Maggie McCurdy-Powers, MS, LMHC, brings a unique blend of expertise to her mental health counseling practice. With a foundation rooted in person-centered, humanistic, and social justice-informed approaches, Maggie creates a therapeutic environment where clients can explore their challenges and nurture their innate capacity for healing.

Maggie's professional journey has been shaped by her extensive experience working with young adults in college settings, as well as adults across various life stages. This diverse background has honed her ability to address a wide array of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, career challenges, codependency, domestic abuse, life transitions, mood disorders, relationship issues, and eating disorders. Her practice is particularly noted for its strong support of individuals within the LGBTQ+ community, offering specialized assistance for mental health concerns arising from societal oppression and marginalization.

At the core of Maggie's therapeutic philosophy is a deep-seated belief in the infinite resilience of the human spirit. She approaches each client with the conviction that their struggles and pain do not define them, but rather offer opportunities for growth and self-discovery. Maggie's therapeutic process begins with establishing a strong alliance, creating a foundation of trust, compassion, and safety essential for initiating the healing journey.

Recognizing that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to mental health, Maggie tailors her therapeutic techniques to each client's unique needs and goals. She works collaboratively with clients to illuminate new pathways toward their objectives, often revealing avenues they may not have previously considered. Her practice emphasizes the development of effective coping strategies and healthier patterns to enhance overall well-being, empowering clients to navigate life's challenges with greater resilience and self-awareness.

In addition to her professional expertise, Maggie brings a personal commitment to self-care and holistic wellness to her practice. She understands firsthand the importance of finding balance and rejuvenation in life's daily struggles. Whether it's through connecting with her "bear-sized puppy," enjoying a run, or preparing a nourishing meal, Maggie embodies the importance of self-care in the healing process. This personal insight informs her work, as she guides clients in identifying and prioritizing activities that contribute to their sense of wholeness and well-being.
