About me

My name is Meghan and I welcome you as you are! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and owner of Inner Light Counseling & Wellness in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I have over seven years of experience helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, addiction, difficult life transitions, relationship issues, and recover from narcissistic abuse. My approach is warm and grounded in proven therapies tailored to your unique needs. Together, we'll identify areas of focus and set goals that matter to you, such as building self-esteem, healing childhood trauma, improving relationships, and breaking unhealthy habits. Taking that first step toward a more fulfilling, balanced life takes courage, and you don’t have to do it alone! I’m here to guide and empower you through each phase of your journey.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Our first session will be an opportunity for us to get to know one another. We’ll discuss your background, history, and what brings you to therapy. We will talk about your goals and expectations. I want you to feel comfortable and safe in every session, so you are in control of what you want to share with me.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My approach to counseling is tailored to meet individual needs. I believe you are the expert of your story and the potential for change is already inside of you. My goal is to help empower you on your healing journey. My therapeutic approach combines elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems, and Person-Centered Therapy to meet your unique needs. For the mind, we will work on emotional insight, unhealthy thinking patterns, and negative core beliefs. For the body, we will integrate somatic awareness, deep breathing, and nervous system support. For the spirit, we will discuss your overall health and wellness, finding your purpose, and connecting with your true self.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work best with adults who feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, overthinking, self-criticism, or burnout. Many of my clients grew up in critical or chaotic environments and find themselves struggling with people-pleasing, guilt, or difficulty setting boundaries. Whether you’re navigating ADHD, depression, or the aftermath of trauma, my focus is on helping you build resilience, find clarity, and create healthier patterns that align with who you truly are. I view counseling as a deeply personal journey that we will travel together. My goal is to help you find your light.
