Maggie Graham, MSW, LICSW — Mental Health Therapist & Life Coach Minnesota

Hello! My name is Maggie, and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in the state of Minnesota. What does that mean? It means I am legally licensed to provide ethical and quality mental health care to folks who reside in our beautiful state. What it means to me is that I have the honor to get to know the most sacred, meaningful expressions of you! I have a passion for helping folks navigate life’s transitions, heal from emotional wounds, and grow into their fullest potential. I have worked across diverse environments—from schools and community-based settings to intensive outpatient programs,  private practice, hospitals, and corporate settings.

I specialize in treating anxiety, complex trauma, chronic shame, major life changes, relationship challenges, and workplace performance concerns. My therapeutic style integrates evidence-based modalities including Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), as well as mindfulness and somatic-based approaches. Sessions can be held in-office, outdoors (including animals if you would like), or virtually—tailored to meet you where you feel most comfortable.

My approach is grounded in strength-based, collaborative care. Whether you're facing a tough life transition or untangling deeper emotional patterns, I offer creative ways for us to work together that resonate with your values and lived experience.

Why horses? Horses have an incredible capacity for healing our insides due to their heightened sensitivity as a prey animal, and incredible capacity for bonding, mirroring, regulating, and building confidence due to their size. Equine-assisted therapy is an evidenced-based practice that is helping so many people heal or simply strengthen parts of themselves. If you have interest in healing this way - let me know!

Outside of my practice, I love spending time with family, being in nature, running, hiking, riding horses, and just….being (I had to learn how to do that, by the way :)
