Dr. Mary Muhammad

Dr. Mary Muhammad

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Vermont


I work with adults experiencing anxiety, chronic stress, burnout, life transitions, chronic health concerns using a lifestyle medicine–informed approach. Many clients feel overwhelmed managing both mental health symptoms and physical conditions, while balancing work, relationships, and caregiving demands. Often high-functioning yet exhausted, they carry a significant mental and physical load and feel disconnected from their needs or direction. This work focuses on restoring stability by addressing the behavioral and lifestyle factors that influence overall health.

Therapist

Virtual • Barre, VT


I am Margaret Swanson, a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LICSW) in both Vermont and New Hampshire. I specialize in trauma - informed care and work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, Borderline Personality Disorder, bipolar disorder, substance abuse and relationship challenges. My approach draws heavily on Dialectic Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) - approaches I believe are especially powerful when trauma has made it harder to trust others and move forward. I know how it feels to be stuck. With the right support, meaningful growth is possible. I offer telehealth sessions.

If you're looking for an out of the ordinary therapist, welcome to my "office"!

So I understand "transplant loneliness" quite well in addition to other city to rural living dilemmas. I have a wide array of lived experience in addition to my education and am able to bring it all to the table to better assist you on your journey. I am only human and I do not know more about you than you, but we can work together to find the solutions to the issues that trouble you. I am here to dig out the answers you seek from within. Side note: I have experience with various types of relationships within the internet/gaming/pop culture/geek/nerd/neurodiverse/LGBTQ/spiritual and alternative communities as well cultural diversity.
