About me

Hello! I'm glad you're here, even if it's just for a short time and introduction. I hope you're safe and finding the connections that help you grow your mind, body, and spirit.

My name is Megan, and I'm a clinical mental health counselor. I get that at times life can feel like a game of dodgeball, with obstacles and hurdles being thrown at us from all angles. It's easy to get overwhelmed and feel stuck, lost, and disconnected. Hey - just so you know - you're not alone in this. And great news! You are already taking steps to make positive changes by reaching out for support, connection, and healing.

My approach to healing is holistic and rooted in connection, collaboration, and curiosity. As a trauma specialist (EMDR trained), I use creative, experiential, expressive, and client-centered methods to deliver evidence-based treatment. This might look like traditional talk therapy, or music, sand tray, art, poetry, and all of these we can do online!

If you are seeking a compassionate and experienced mental health counselor, and if my approach resonates, I would be honored to work with you. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me with any questions or to schedule an appointment. Either way, "be easy..."

"Safety is not the absence of threat. It is the presence of connection." Dr. Gabor Mate
