LICSW, 3 years of experience
As a licensed clinical social worker, I am committed to collecting evidenced based "tools for my toolbox" to aid those grappling with finding the new normal after their world has shifted. I most love helping people find language to describe their losses, often when there has been difficulty finding the words, inspiring people to find hope again, and facilitate the development of a plan to move forward in a way that both honors their experiences and embraces the future. I take an action-oriented, collaborative approach to therapy. I utilize a combination of psycho education, storytelling, and evidenced-based interventions to offer meaningful insight to support clients’ healing. I strongly believe that rock bottom is the foundation upon which we can rebuild our lives. We do regular check-ins to review progress along the way. Our goal is not to change the past, but instead to find some relief from symptoms that impact daily functioning. I will solicit feedback regularly during sessions for takeaways to gauge progress and curate treatment interventions based on what is most engaging and productive for the individual client.
In our first session, clients can expect to learn about expectations from therapy, my background, I will ask you more about your goals, and we will discuss a tentative plan of how we will move forward. We will focus on making progress while moving at a comfortable pace for you. Once reviewing your goals or learning more about your situation during intake, if for any reason I feel like you may benefit from different therapist skillsets, I will review my professional recommendations with you and discuss any questions you may have so you can feel confident and make an informed decision regarding your chosen next steps. Our time together will feel like a two-way conversation, where you will learn new skills and gain insight better understand your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. You can expect a collaborative experience that offers you tools to walk away.
I specialize in grief and loss, anxiety, and attachment. I work with a variety of populations in my social work roles including perinatal work, parenting education, homelessness, substance use, crisis intervention, child welfare, trauma, and geriatrics. Due to the diversity in my work and grief being the universal experience, I have completed extensive continuing education coursework to build, strengthen, and expand skills and continue to grow my toolbox to support clients.
My dream clients are people who have these traits in common: A desire to learn, reflect, and motivation to improve how they feel.
I use CBT to support clients in challenging their thoughts and gaining tools to use independently long after sessions end.
Founded in attachment theory, along with Circle of Security, I use CPP to help build, develop, and strengthen bonds between children and their caregivers.
I am a trained Gottman Seven Principles Leader and Bringing Baby Home Facilitator. I utilize these resources along with initial Gottman Therapy training to offer support to individuals navigating and pursuing romantic relationships.
I support clients processes a variety of losses, both traditional and non-death related, by viewing through a lens of grief and trauma. This allows space to find the language for feelings at times when it's often had to find the words to express feelings associated with difficult experiences.

She's really nice, and I felt at ease talking to her right away. She has such a warm presence and I look forward to talking to her again.

Why I chose Megan, she specializes in grief and looked friendly. I think our commonalities and her knowledge will help me during this process of finding my new normal. She has a modern style and is very easy to talk to. I’m looking forward to progressing.

She is so awesome! I was really worried about feeling uncomfortable or judged, but she’s like the best and I’ve only had one session!
