Transform Your Life

Stop abandoning yourself and start creating the life of your dreams

Welcome, I’m Margo.

I am a licensed psychotherapist and coach with over two decades of experience helping people break free from self-abandonment — the hidden pattern that quietly sabotages relationships, careers and self-worth.

Are you successful in much of your life, but struggle with self-esteem or relationships? Through my approach, you'll learn how to become securely self-attached: rooted in a strong, stable sense of who you are, no longer thrown off course by others' opinions or old wounds. With that foundation, you can finally move forward— confidently and on your own terms—toward the life you actually want.

What we lose when we self-abandon:

  • We lose ourselves in relationships.

  • We lose our self-respect. We drink too much, overeat, starve or binge on everything.

  • We lose our self-esteem. We people please. We look to others to provide our security and relevance.

  • We Lose Ourselves. Not A Little. It’s Gradual. And Eventually We Lose The Whole Thing.

Securely Self-Attached feels really good:

  • We feel solid in ourselves and solid in our relationships.

  • Our self-esteem and self-efficacy blossoms naturally. We have an internal self-loving barometer about food, drinking and scrolling—we are free.

  • We learn to please ourselves and provide our own rock solid security.

  • We come home to the steadier more lasting love: the knowledge that we will never abandon ourselves again.

My Offerings


Psychotherapy

Whatever your background or the challenges you're facing, I'm here to listen — really listen — and work alongside you, creatively and collaboratively, toward the change you're seeking. My training in psychotherapy, social work, and ontological coaching means I can meet you wherever you are, across a wide range of issues and life experiences. It would be an honor to help you build a more fulfilling life.

Securely Self-Attached

Using secure self-attachment as an internal barometer for decision-making changes everything. Once you are practiced in listening to your core needs and feelings, while tuning into your wisdom, you have a power no one can take from you. You really can choose to never abandon yourself again.

Substack & Podcast

Self-Abandon No More on Substack With a mix of personal reflection, psychological theory, ancient wisdom and 12- step pragmatism, I explore the messy process of living. These are my front porch conversations about secure self-attachment, feminine wholeness, healing self-abandonment, self-mastery, and living a soul-infused life. Each Sunday.

Securely Self-Attached on Apple Podcasts Coming November 2026. I talk with therapists, writers and other thinkers abou self-abandonment, insecure attachment to self and the quietly dedicated work of becoming whole.
