Maghan Eversmith, LPC

Maghan Eversmith is a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Mental Health Service Provider designation (LPC-MHSP), bringing six years of clinical experience to her work. She favors cognitive behavioral therapy as a core technique - helping clients notice and shift unhelpful thoughts to change emotions and actions - and pairs that with creative and trauma-focused approaches when appropriate. She also integrates narrative therapy and art-based methods, tailoring interventions to each person's needs because counseling is not one size fits all.

Maghan earned a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from UNC-Greensboro. Her work spans a broad age range, supporting clients from early childhood through later adulthood with challenges such as attention and impulse control, anxiety and panic attacks, depression, self-harm and suicidal ideation, relationship concerns, parenting and foster care issues, self-esteem and self-image, and life transitions. She has worked with individuals, couples, and families and has served as a therapist within the foster care system in Nashville, Tennessee, supporting children entering care as well as biological and foster families.

Maghan believes people are capable of change and that sometimes a guiding, objective presence helps start growth. She focuses on building practical skills, helping clients set and reach goals, and walking alongside them through difficult moments so they emerge feeling more capable and resilient.

Combining evidence-based approaches for online care

Maghan frequently uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a practical approach that helps people identify patterns of thinking that contribute to distress and replace them with healthier, more balanced thoughts. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, depression, panic, and managing daily stress.

She also incorporates narrative therapy, which invites clients to explore and reframe the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships. This approach can be useful for issues like identity, self-esteem, grief, and navigating life changes.

Mindfulness therapy is used to help clients develop present-moment awareness and coping skills for overwhelming feelings, making it a helpful complement for anxiety, stress management, and impulse control.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Maghan works collaboratively with each person to determine which combination of methods best fits their goals, needs, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions offer flexibility and accessibility - clients can meet by video call, talk by phone, or connect through live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access licensed professionals from home or other convenient locations.
