About Maggie
Maggie Shutey is an LCPC - Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Montana with 12 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, eating concerns, and depression. Her practice is grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques and practical support for everyday struggles.
She listens for what feels most urgent and helps clients name the problems that get in the way of feeling steady. Sessions focus on clear, doable steps rather than abstract theory. Clients who feel stuck after a life change or who struggle with recurring anxious or depressive patterns often find this approach useful.
Maggie pays attention to how attachment, abandonment, and relationship patterns shape current coping. She also works with issues like body image, guilt and shame, and impulses that interfere with daily life. Chronic pain, illness, and caregiver stress are addressed with practical strategies as well.
The work emphasizes building resilience and practical skills such as emotion regulation, boundary-setting, and managing intrusive memories or panic. Maggie frames these skills in everyday language and helps people try them out between sessions. Progress is tracked in concrete ways so clients can see what changes.
People can expect straightforward guidance and a focus on what matters now. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled through the See online therapy options button. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How Maggie’s evidence-based methods translate to online care
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques she draws on involve clear, skills-focused work rather than lengthy explanations. One common technique teaches emotion regulation skills to reduce overwhelm and manage panic or intense sadness; this helps with anxiety, mood swings, and chronic stress by providing concrete tools to use in the moment.Another approach targets patterns that come from attachment and abandonment wounds. This work looks at how past relationships shape current reactions and practices new ways of relating and setting boundaries, which can reduce recurring conflict and emptiness.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to choose which methods fit their goals and preferences, and adjusts the plan as those goals change. Clients are invited to try strategies between sessions and report back on what works.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy week and reducing travel time. The specific session formats available should be confirmed before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to maintain regular appointments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and help therapy fit into work and family routines.
