Megan Gervais
Hey there!! I'm a licensed clinical social worker located in Connecticut. I received my Bachelors in Social Work from Central Connecticut State University and my Masters in Social Work from the University of Pennsylvania. I have been a practicing social worker in health care since 2006 and in private practice since 2021.
My greatest strength as a provider is my interest in learning.
I enjoy working with clients at all ages and stages and specialize in anxiety, depression and chronic health issues.
First session
First sessions are a lot like first dates and can be awkward when getting to know someone. You can expect to go over some basics of how the sessions will run, my expectations and confidentiality basics. From there, I'd love to learn what brings you to therapy and what you're hoping to get out of this relationship. Together, we will be able to formulate a treatment plan.
Strengths
My greatest strength as a provider is my interest in learning. I will always ask questions, research, push to know more - about my clients, about their situation, about whatever they present with. This thirst for knowledge helps me to understand my clients and help them feel not so alone.
Ideal clients
I enjoy working with clients who are solution focused. I love when my clients present with an issue and work with me to develop plans and strategies to address how they're feeling. Collaboration is key!! I also hope that my clients will appreciate my upfront nature and are open to being challenged during difficult issues.
Treatment methods
Eclectic
I believe that there is no one size fits all therapy approach. I try to tailor my therapy approach to each client's goals of therapy using CBT, solution focused therapy and a strengths perspective primarily.
