Hello,
I am a licensed clinical social worker in Texas as well as California. I have been working with patients with mental health diagnoses for a little over 10 years.
I received my Bachelors and Master’s degree in Social Work with a specialty in Mental Health. From there, I obtained two years of supervised clinical mental health training to become a clinical practitioner, and here we are!
I am proficient in working with clients who experience depression and anxiety, but who isn’t?
Anyone who has those labels on their chest knows that there are large subsets of other disorders lying around. You and I can work on all of the above. You are in a safe place.
Relationships, body dysmorphia, life changes- you have space for it all with me.
I will not sell you anything nor promise that I am the best of the best.
What I can give you is a solid heart and a safe place to heal.
After all, you made it this far, what’s the harm in trying on some healing?
My therapy style is direct, honest, and heartfelt. I expect you to show up for yourself.
Respect and compassion for your pain are forefront. Also, the belief that a tiny step is worthy of celebration! If I am believing in you, I’m bringing you along with me on this journey.
Clinically, I cannot say that I adhere to one modality. I pick at Cognitive Behavioral therapy (CBT). I will use components of CBT, but I will NEVER throw a book your way and say finish it.
I combine narrative style with motivational interviewing as well as a psychodynamic approach. Sure, let’s talk about mom and pop.
I am following your lead here with a strong guiding hand. If you have read this far come on down and give me a try...
See you soon. Meghan

Very professional, but with the ability to communicate with you in a friendly manor. I’m glad to have been paired with her.
