Truly thankful for Marguerite and her guidance throughout my difficult situation. She’s attentive and intentional in trying to better understand her clients while meeting them where they are.

Working with Marguerite has been a fun and refreshing experience. She is empathetic and professional. Her personality really invites you to be comfortable and open with her. I am seeing amazing results using her therapeutic techniques, and honestly I could not be happier to be working with her.

As a woman of a narcissistic mother, I have had many different therapists in the past, but I have never had such a therapist feel so understanding towards my struggles, but also so empathetic that she feels like a warm hug every time I am on therapy session. She constantly pushes me outside of my limits, which is great, because that’s what therapy is all about taking little steps to bettering yourself.

Marguerite Elkins has helped me a lot in the shirt time we’ve been together. She’s always looking for new modern techniques; her research definitely didn’t stop after she got her license! She does everything she can to ensure I’m using techniques that are best for me and my situation. She’s so kind and understanding and patient as well! She ensures Ive fully worked through the topic of my trauma or past before we move on even if it takes longer than it typically does with other clients. I’m so thankful I was matched with her.

Marguerite is such a Godly, spirit-filled woman and has been such an answer to my prayers. She has really helped me walk through a lot of spiritual warfare during my engagement season and how to fight the enemy with the word of God. She has helped me find so much healing through Jesus and I would highly recommend her to anyone!!
