My name is Megan, not “therapist Megan,” just Megan. I am an authentic individual who genuinely strives to meet people where they are and support them on their life journey. In sessions, I approach each person with empathy, compassion, and a solution-focused mindset, providing psychoeducation and guidance to help them achieve their goals. Above all, I value the therapeutic relationship, built on a foundation of trust and non-judgment.

Get to know me

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

In your first session, we will start by reviewing informed consent and discussing the process of therapy so you know what to expect and feel comfortable. I’ll ask about your background, current circumstances, and what brought you to therapy—your “why now”—to better understand your needs and experiences. Together, we will begin exploring your goals and identify a common focus to guide our work, ensuring that the path we take is meaningful and tailored to you. Most importantly, this session is an opportunity to start building a trusting, non-judgmental relationship where you feel heard and supported from the very beginning.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Connecting with people where they are and approaching them with a non-judgmental mindset.”

Megan is very down to earth and easy to talk to. Entering therapy for the first time can be a little overwhelming. Megan has made this process easy. I appreciate how authentic she is. She listens really well and provides very useful feedback. I have found this experience to be extremely helpful. I would highly recommend her if you are looking for a provider.
