Margaret Clark

Therapist

In-person • St. Petersburg, FL


I find purpose and satisfaction in providing A.R.T. (Accelerated Resolution Therapy)along with other time tested evidenced-based therapeutic tools. After talk therapy alone, I was continually hijacked by my past experiences and my battery was low. I had repetitive doubts, tears, and triggers. A.R.T. connected new pathways in my brain which allowed me to reset and move forward. Today, I enjoy nature, spending time with family and friends, art, paddle boarding and meditation.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Wesley Chapel

Finding therapists in Wesley Chapel starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. You may also want a therapist with experience in a specific approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy, or couples therapy. Reading each therapist’s listed specialties can help you see whether their training matches what you want to focus on in care.

In a smaller community like Wesley Chapel, nearby in-person therapy options may be more limited than in a larger city. Virtual sessions can expand your search across Florida while still keeping care connected to your schedule and preferences. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they are accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Therapist profiles can also show how they describe their communication style, session structure, and approach to care before you book.

Therapy in Wesley Chapel can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and get a clearer estimate before your first appointment. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, take your insurance, and offer in-person or virtual sessions. You can review bios, compare availability, see your estimated cost after adding insurance, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
