Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

A kind welcoming environment. I felt at home right away. I have received enough counseling to feel hope. My marriage is looking better also. I am feeling much better with communication with others that I have secluded myself from. She is attentive and compassionate, I feel fortunate to have her for a therapist. You can't expect results in one visit and advise is just that advise. It's up to you what you do with it. I have no problem making appointments. or getting an extra appointment when I am having a bad time

FREEDOM OF SPEECH
Do yourself a favor and avoid this woman at all cost. You will regret ever using her as a therapist. She cares nothing about you as a human being, only the $$ you pay for a session, of which revolves around her life, her millions, her judge spouse, and other expensive things she owned, that she wants to brag about. I can honestly say that this woman is one of the absolute worst therapists you will ever find. I had quite a bit more to say on this review, but I was told that I could not tell the truth, so I had to reduce this review. Pretty sad when you are an American citizen, being told your freedom of speech means nothing

I feel better after every session. I feel a sense of growth inch by inch with her unconditional non judgement care. I know I have a long way to go but Margaret has always been there in every step of guidance, reassuring that in time I can deal with my trauma. Blessed to have her.

I can't reccommend in good faith
I went to see her to get advice and consult on how to get out of an abusive marriage. It felt like rather than listening to me and giving helpful advice the conversations went back to her and her experiences in a previous relationship. The situations were not comparable, so I didn't have much of a takeaway. In short, I don't find that my visits were all that helpful and there was little flexibility in scheduling.

Told me I shouldn't go to college because "it wasn't a good fit for me". I ignored her advice, and have been earning nothing but As and Bs. I did not appreciate her giving me poor advice.

Margaret saved my life when the stress of childhood sexual abuse and physical abuse caught up to me after another abusive relationship I put my self into.she has helped me to not only be able to leave my home when doing so became so dramatic that I could barely walk out the door to now working full time again. I believe that as we continue I will get past the need to be abused by my relationships with other people. Her profesionlism and deep understanding of problems help with each meeting we have. Oh and by the way she has a great little therapy dog.

I set up an appointment with this lady for a Saturday at 3 o clock because that was the only time I could make it. She calls me on Saturday to change my time to 2 o clock which is ironic being that she wants you to cancel within 24 hours but she can change your appointment time whenever she wants. So I say fine. I get a call from my mom around one stating that she needs to go to the hospital and I live in Vancouver and she lives in Wilsonville. So I take off from the mall and in the process I call the therapist and tell her I can't make it. So she says to me " I'm about to start a session right now so I will call you later to reschedule." I say ok fine. 10 mins later my mom calls and tells me never mind don't come I'm ok. So I email the therapist to let her know and I head to her office. At 1:50 pm some other lady walks in and sits down where I was sitting down waiting. As the door opens its the therapist and I start to tell her that I was able to come after all. She tells me my time s

Talks over you the entire time. Extremely unhelpful in resolving anything. 100% would NOT recommend her.

I've been seeing Margaret for about 6 months. She takes a scientific approach, focuses on the "why" my brain and heart work the way they do and uses that as a baseline against what is normal/healthy. The difference between my persoanl reality and the real world's average and expectations is the ground in which we focus and the gap she's helping me close. Cognitive behavioral changes, one step at a time, toward my end goal. That's what I wanted, that's what she said she could provide. I'm pleased

I was so fortunate finding Margaret when I so needed her skills, Her empathy, understanding of just what I need has been my savior since I began seeing her. I was and continue to go through so much, to include the loss of my only sibling at a relatively young age, diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis after losing my job due to the symptoms, then found out my mother has dementia and I am her lone caretaker. To top it off, I am fighting to get Social Security! Believe me she is simply the BEST. CALL!

This was the most unprofessional of a "professional" I have encountered in a long time. She is why I don't have faith in the medical field. She dropped me after 1 mistake with no scrutiny of her own previous actions, Made it feel like it's all about the money with her (or the money she makes off of you) and not your long term mental health. I would never recommend her to anyone and if you get this side of her, you've been warned.

Margaret has a way of putting you at ease immediately upon meeting her. I was comfortable sharing my issues with her and together we formulated a plan to address them... One at a time. I would recommend Margaret Browning to anyone in need of personal counseling.

Margaret has been an understanding, professional and observant therapist. I appreciate her work, and her dedication to counseling is obvious. Margaret clearly wants me to succeed in my personal goals. I can't imagine not having Margaret as a guide through what can sometimes be challenging situations in life. Margaret has helped me navigate through some very difficult times. I always leave with just what I needed, even if I wasn't aware of what that was going in. I highly recommend Margaret.
