Hi!

I’m Megan.

My clients have spent their lives bending over backward to make others comfortable, and as a people-pleaser in recovery (it’s a journey not a destination, and your journey will look different than mine), I know the challenges and rewards of owning who you are without apology.

My most successful clients approach the process of therapy like investigators: they want to know why things got so bad and how to not only feel better but how to make improvements permanent. I am fully present and active in sessions, and I expect the same level of effort from my clients. This is a collaborative process; we will work together as a team to generate solutions and innovative strategies for helping you achieve your goals. I provide evidence-based, science-backed solutions and help you apply those in your life and relationships.

I work best with clients who are motivated, ready to work, and willing to test the boundaries of their comfort zone. My clients appreciate my respectful, candid approach. They understand that I am not an oracle, and I can’t fix all their problems; they know that it is actually up to them how much they get out of therapy.

The clients I work with are struggling with deep emotional pain, anger, anxiety, and stress, but they are still hopeful that things can be better, and they’re willing to be uncomfortable if it means having the life they want. Therapy is not always easy, but it is always worth it.

I’ve always said, never trust a therapist who hasn’t done their own work in therapy. I’ve learned through therapy how to take better care of myself and embrace my quirks, and I believe that’s given me the ability to help my clients honor themselves and practice self-compassion.

I try to be the kind of therapist I would choose for myself: authentic, honest, easy-going, with a dash of humor and fun. (Yes, therapy can be fun!)

Education

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (License #999)

Master of Science, Human Development and Family Science, Specialization in Marriage and Family Therapy, Oklahoma State University, 2007

Bachelor of Arts, Psychology, University of Arkansas, 2005

My graduate school program was intense, and I received hundreds of hours of live supervision, where a supervisor watched my sessions behind a one-way mirror. (Yes, it was nerve-wracking, but it made me so much more confident as a therapist.)
