About Peggy
Peggy Cahue-Kuipers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 16 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, addictions, parenting challenges, grief, and codependency-related patterns. Peggy focuses on practical steps people can use to feel steadier and more in control of their choices.
Her approach centers on methods that help people notice what matters and act on it. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to clarify values and build committed action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is part of her work for reshaping unhelpful thoughts and habits. Client-Centered Therapy guides how she listens and responds in sessions.
Peggy has worked with people dealing with trauma and abuse, eating and sleep problems, anger and control issues, and family of origin concerns. She also supports those coping with career stress, major life changes, and the effects of substance use in themselves or others. Her background includes EMDR training and a mix of mindfulness and solution-focused skills.
In sessions she helps people set small, achievable goals and practice concrete skills between meetings. She talks through boundary-setting, communication struggles, and managing urges or intense emotions. Practical tools and short experiments are common parts of the work.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Peggy uses a subscription payment model that can be canceled at any time; session cost varies with location.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people name their values and take small actions that fit those values. In online sessions this can mean setting brief home practice goals and checking progress together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, using short exercises and between-session worksheets to test new ways of thinking. Client-Centered Therapy shapes how she listens and responds, giving space for people to lead the conversation while the therapist reflects and clarifies. Together the client and therapist review what methods feel most helpful and adjust the plan as work progresses. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process based on the client's goals, needs, and preferences. Confirm the exact session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow brief check-ins when time is limited, and support practicing skills between meetings without extra travel time. If someone prefers shorter check-ins, audio-only work, or a mix of tasks and talk, those options can be discussed and arranged when scheduling.Areas of focus
