Meet margaret
Hello. My name is Margaret Cousins. I am a graduate student at Oral Roberts University studying to become a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have worked with children, families, and individuals as an associate pastor for over 30 years. I graduated from Oakland Community College with my Associate of Applied Science degree in Mental Health/Social Work in 2019. In 2022, I graduated from Oral Roberts University with my Bachelor of Arts degree in Christian Care and Counseling. I believe that human beings are inherently relational, designed to thrive in connection with others. However, navigating these connections can sometimes require guidance and support to ensure they remain healthy and fulfilling. My main focus as a counselor is to walk alongside people and support them as they live fulfilling lives.

I graduated from GVSU with my undergraduate degree in Social Work in 2022, and have enjoyed working in the community providing support and guidance to individuals.
I look forward to working through goals and issues with my clients, while providing individuals with the encouragement they need to get through the tough days.
