About Peggy

Peggy Cahue-Kuipers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan. She draws on 16 years of clinical experience to help people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strains, and addiction concerns. Peggy speaks plainly and focuses on practical steps people can use between sessions.

Her approach centers on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered work. She uses a mix of tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to match each person’s needs.

Background and approach

Sessions are direct and goal-oriented, with attention to emotions, thoughts, and behavior. Peggy has worked with people facing grief, trauma and abuse, eating and sleep problems, intimacy-related issues, and parenting stress. She also supports those dealing with anger, career transitions, and life changes.

Additional focuses include family of origin issues, codependency, commitment concerns, and substance use challenges. Therapy with Peggy tends to be collaborative. She helps people name patterns, try new ways of responding, and build skills that fit day-to-day life.

She emphasizes dignity and respect in every conversation and encourages steady effort over time. Sessions are conducted in English and available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Peggy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and session cost varies with location and therapist availability.

Online support

Approaches that guide online sessions

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and responding to core emotions in the moment. It helps people understand patterns in their feelings and form new ways of connecting with themselves and others.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches people to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to commit to actions that match personal values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental stance. The therapist listens closely and helps people find their own solutions rather than prescribing answers.

Peggy will work collaboratively to find the therapeutic approach that fits each person’s goals and preferences. Together they assess what is most helpful and try methods that suit the issue at hand, adjusting as progress unfolds.

Online work is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people use face-to-face interaction for deeper emotional work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for brief check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for ongoing coaching, shorter check-ins, or when someone prefers writing. These options give flexibility to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum between sessions.
