Peggy Winsman, LCSW

Peggy Winsman is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with over 25 years of clinical experience working with both children and adults. She has extensive experience supporting people who have experienced trauma as well as those coping with depression, anxiety, and significant life transitions. Peggy attends to the interaction between physical and mental health and may incorporate Health and Wellness information into care - for example medical status, nutrition, and physical activity - when relevant to a client's concerns.

She emphasizes a client-centered approach so that each person feels heard, supported, and respected in the therapy process. Her practice is informed by trauma-aware and strength-based perspectives and draws on a range of therapeutic methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused work, Developmental approaches, and Somatic therapy. Peggy uses these tools flexibly to tailor treatment to a client's needs and goals. Her training and long-term experience allow her to blend practical strategies with deeper understanding to help clients manage symptoms and navigate change.

As an LCSW - a licensed clinical social worker qualified to provide clinical psychotherapy - Peggy combines clinical knowledge with a collaborative stance that prioritizes safety, pacing, and client empowerment throughout the therapeutic process.
