LMSW-C, 16 years of experience
Welcome! I am so glad you are taking the first step to find happiness and well-being. My name is Megan Mackety and I am an LMSW with 16 years of professional experience. My main focus is on building connection and trust. I want to make sure you feel safe and heard as we build a therapeutic rapport. I am here to act as a sounding board to work through all those things that come up as we move through life. You are the expert on yourself. All of us deal with sadness and worry, but sometimes those feelings can become overwhelming and lead to anxiety and depression. Through techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness and solution focused work we can design a plan that meets your individual goals with strategies that make sense in your life. Often past trauma, feelings of anger and resentment and self-esteem issues are important factors to address to work through in order to reach your goals. I would love to be there to help support and empower your journey,
During our first session together, we will become introduced. You will have the opportunity to share information about your life, work, relationships and family and go over the concerns that brought you to therapy. We can outline goals to work towards as each week progresses.
I am an extremely non judgmental, open, friendly and encouraging person. Making you feel comfortable and safe is my number one priority.
I specialize in dealing with clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression and low self-esteem.
With Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I help clients process through thoughts, feelings and behaviors. Together we can look into the reasoning and motivation behind them and develop a plan to change faulty thinking and cope with negative emotions and situations.
Solution focused therapy allows the client to set goals and work through practical options to resolve issues including emotional regulation with coping strategies and boundary setting with others.
