About Maggie

LMHC in Florida with 14 years of experience, Maggie Zagorova helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family difficulties, and depression. She offers therapy in English, Bulgarian, and American Sign Language and has a background working with deaf and hard of hearing clients. Maggie's training includes a Master’s in Mental Health Counseling and a certificate in sign language interpreting.

Maggie uses a mix of practical methods in sessions. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify patterns of thinking and behavior. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness techniques to build coping skills and emotional regulation.

Her work often focuses on concrete problems such as communication breakdowns, workplace stress, caregiver strain, and issues with control, guilt, or shame. She also supports people facing social anxiety, impulsivity, questions of life purpose, and self-worth concerns. Sessions include conversational work and skill practice rather than abstract theory.

Maggie has extensive experience with the deaf and hard of hearing community and a certificate in sign language interpreting. That background shapes how she adapts communication and therapeutic choices for people who use American Sign Language.

She describes therapy as a collaborative process. Clients can expect practical strategies, short-term skills they can try between sessions, and discussion about which methods fit best with their goals. To start, readers should confirm current session formats before booking.

How Maggie uses therapeutic approaches in remote work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values-based action. It helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when uncomfortable feelings appear. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It offers practical exercises to test and change unhelpful thinking and to build new habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Maggie will review goals and preferences with each person and suggest techniques to try. That collaboration helps decide whether ACT, CBT, DBT skills, or mindfulness practices fit best for a given concern.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which options are offered before booking. Many people find remote sessions easier to schedule around work or caregiving duties and useful for short, focused check-ins. Remote work can also make it simpler to include American Sign Language when needed or to use exercises that translate well to a video or phone setting. Ask about format details when you complete the matching questionnaire so sessions can be arranged to fit everyday life.
