Hi!

I’m Megan.

I believe in the curative powers of exercise (seriously, it solves almost everything!), swearing (sometimes “darn it” just doesn’t cut it), getting lost in music, and life-changing books. Decluttering and organizing are my jam. I don’t always have my shit together, but I’ll be damned if my closet isn’t organized by color. I’m an introvert who can also be quite outspoken and opinionated.

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 weirdness, and I believe that’s given me the ability to help my clients honor themselves and practice self-compassion.

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.

I work best with clients who are motivated, ready to work, and willing to test the boundaries of their comfort zone. My most successful 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.

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.

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 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!)
