Peg works with adults using acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral theory, psychodynamic therapy, communications theories, solution focused therapy, and family systems theories. Peg has worked with men and women's issues, such as depression, anxiety, relationship problems, marital problems, financial problems, vocational, parenting and self-esteem issues.
