Margaret Felty, LPC

Margaret Felty is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas who brings 36 years of clinical experience to her work. She supports people facing trauma and abuse, grief and loss, depression, and compassion fatigue, and she also addresses related concerns such as caregiver stress, communication problems, divorce and separation, and issues around forgiveness and life purpose.

Working with clients from elementary school through retirement, she offers an accepting, LGBTQ+ friendly practice that aims to create a nonjudgmental space for sharing thoughts and emotions. Margaret emphasizes the courage it takes to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and positions herself as a steady source of support throughout that process.

Her therapeutic toolkit includes EMDR for trauma and anxiety, mindfulness practices, grief and loss counseling, and Rational Emotive Therapy, along with other techniques adapted for telehealth work. She combines these evidence-based methods to tailor treatment to each person’s needs, helping clients navigate panic symptoms, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety, women's issues, financial stress, isolation, and other concerns. Margaret works with both local and international clients and offers approaches suited to remote care when appropriate.

Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Care

Margaret commonly uses EMDR, a structured approach that helps individuals process traumatic memories and reduce distress related to past events; it is often used for trauma and anxiety. She also incorporates mindfulness techniques that teach present-focused awareness and stress management skills useful for panic, rumination, and compassion fatigue. Grief and loss counseling is another core focus, providing a supportive framework to work through bereavement and life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Margaret collaborates with each client to determine which methods best match their goals, needs, and personal preferences. She adapts evidence-based techniques to the pace and comfort level of the person she is working with, making adjustments as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Margaret is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which helps make care more accessible across time zones and life schedules. These options provide flexibility for those balancing work, caregiving, or mobility limitations, and they allow ongoing engagement with a licensed professional from home or another convenient setting.
