LMFT, 15 years of experience
Hello! I’m a marriage family therapist in the state of California. I’ve been working for over a decade to help families, kids, and individuals at various stages of their lives. I have worked in school based settings, community mental health and private practice. I have experience working with individuals who struggle with anxiety, (OCD) depression, other mood disorders, neurodivergent individuals, gifted and couples.
In our first session together, I will want to understand what brought you to therapy, your hopes for therapy and how I can help. I will be curious about the specific challenges you're facing and begin to understand how I can address your specific needs. This will help me create a plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
My years and diverse experience in different setting with various clients has helped me feel confident in my skill set. I have had the opportunity to be a part of individual’s growth and lives; which I feel both grateful and honored to be a part.
I have extensive experience working with individual struggle with anxiety, OCD, and depression.
I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy as a technique to help people identify and debunk faulty thinking and unconscious beliefs.
I help clients learn emotion regulation skills, distress tolerance, mindfulness and assertive communication.
I help clients radically accept difficult realities in an effort to not avoid certain painful feelings
I utilize attachment based and emotion focused approaches to building connection within the couple dynamic.
I try to understand a client’s history in an effort to get a sense of their attachment style, interpersonal dynamics and provide helpful insights related to their current situation.

So far so good. During our first session, Megan showed compassion and was actively listening.
