About Margarita
I am a 32 year old Mental Health Peer Specialist with lived experience in depression, postpartum, anxiety, domestic violence, and relationships impacted by substance use disorder. I navigated mental health while parenting 3 daughters. I utilize a trauma-informed, strengths-based approach to support and develop healthy boundaries, improving emotional regulation, and increasing self-efficacy.
My Recovery Story
Some days are harder than others, but I push forward for my daughters. They are my reason to keep going, to grow, and to break the cycle. Today, my life has more clarity, and more strength. I’ve learned how to cope in healthy ways, how to set boundaries, see the red flags and how to be a present mom my daughters need. Now, I want to be that help for others. I know what it feels like to be alone, judged, or stuck in silence—and that’s why I want to be someone who truly listens without judgment. I hope to be a light for someone else still finding their way.
