My website

Hi, I’m Megan, an EMDR-certified therapist offering therapy for individuals, couples/relationships, and families in Vancouver and online. You don’t need a diagnosis or a clear label for what you’re experiencing to begin, just knowing you would like something to be different is enough. Many of the people I work with understand themselves well on an intellectual level, but still find themselves pulled into familiar emotional or relational patterns, especially in moments of stress, conflict, or overwhelm. EMDR helps process what keeps your nervous system stuck so the past stops shaping present reactions and internal experiences.

EMDR is different than talk therapy. It is a structured approach that follows a treatment plan that we will create together and uses specific phases to guide the work. My approach is warm, collaborative and goes at your pace. We focus on what you identify as important and use that to guide our work in a way that feels manageable, clear, and supportive.

Before becoming a therapist, I spent over a decade in Victim Services supporting survivors of high risk domestic and familial violence, and worked as a Coroner. That work deeply shaped my belief that we all have the innate capacity to heal and reconnect with who we are at our core. This belief is at the heart of my clinical approach.

I work with individuals, couples, and families experiencing trauma, anxiety, and relationship difficulties where people feel stuck in patterns. Individual treatment is structured and collaborative, often using EMDR. In couples and family work, I focus on helping people understand and change the patterns that keep them feeling disconnected or in conflict with one another.
