Margaret Keig (she/her)

I am married to a post-transition trans man whom I regularly accompany to to trans conferences, meetings, and events. I also have professional experience providing individual, couple, family, and group services to trans individuals and their families, both binary and non-binary. I have experience writing letters for gender affirming hormone therapy and surgery.

I worked at the San Diego LGBT Community Center, and interned with UCSF Alliance Health Project and San Francisco Therapy Collective with these populations. I also have professional experience with HIV/AIDS communities. I have done professional presentations in areas such as LGBT and substance use, and LGBT youth.

I spent two years providing grief and loss support to individuals and families in the hospital. I then facilitated grief and loss groups for middle school students and adults dealing with addiction, and have worked individually with adults, teens, and children dealing with grief and loss. I have presented professionally on grief and loss.

I learned this approach in my masters program and have worked with it since, and have attended trainings in this area.

I have worked with this approach within LGBTQ+ populations and with people struggling with addiction. I have also presented professionally on this topic.

I learned about this approach in my masters program, have used it since, have attended motivational interviewing training and have presented professionally on motivational interviewing.
