"Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of overcoming it." Helen Keller. Those words have been a source of inspiration to me for years as a person and a psychotherapist. I have worked with many people who have been brave enough to try to understand and make changes to what they struggle with in life, and also to live life more fully, creatively, and lovingly.

Often, our past relationships leave us wounded. The story that we tell ourselves becomes permeated with negative thoughts, low self-worth, and shame. As these feelings manifest, we become anxious and depressed. Therapy can help us discover perspectives that create a new narrative, one in which we have different ways to manage our emotions and lead a more enjoyable life.

I invite you to visit my website drehrhart.com for a more complete sense of how I can help you, or you and your partner, who I am, and how I work. In short though, if we work together we would explore the dynamic terrain of your relationships - your relationships to your emotions, your thoughts, your behavior, to your idea of self, and to others. This is done in a relationship of genuine curiosity and compassion, so that change, in place of judgement, is fostered. Eventually, this productive and curious environment or relationship that we foster together, can be internalized and taken with you as a tool for your life journey.

I believe our most challenging times can also be our greatest opportunity for change. With the right perspective and the proper support system, difficult times can transition to a stronger, more resilient you.

I provide psychotherapy for individuals, couples and families. My aim is to help you identify and understand past experiences and to assist you in making decisions to cultivate a life of satisfaction, meaning and peace.

Perhaps you are feeling stuck, off balance, or trying to make sense of the complex rainbow of feelings you are having. You may be dealing with challenging relational, work, or personal issues. Let’s sit down together and with acceptance and compassion fully take stock of where you are, what it is you really want, and what is getting in the way of making it happen. No part of you gets left behind. I work with both couples and individuals.

I specialize in working with you in times of change whether wanted or unwanted; un-coupling or committing; wits-end or letting go or starting again. By looking at habits, patterns, defense structures, and super powers, we build awareness of their purpose and see how we can repurpose them, let them go or build new ones through deepening and allowing, owning disavowed parts, crafting new narratives. We help you find compassion and respect for self and others, growing your self esteem and relational wisdom.

I am an integrative therapist, using a holistic model and techniques from somatic, relational, inter-subjective, and transpersonal psychology, as well as techniques from my own long-standing spiritual practices, such as drumming, chanting and Vipassana Buddhist meditation practice. I got my masters in Psychology with a Somatic Concentration from JFK, Orinda, CA in 1997. As LGBTQIA identified and a Pacific Islander, I know that both trauma and healing can come from our individual and cultural histories. I welcome anyone seeking growth or healing and I'm committed to healing within marginalized communities. My areas of specialty include people with histories of trauma and/or addiction, people looking to integrate spiritual experiences, people of color and members of the LGBTQ community.

Things seem fine from the outside, you are successful in some areas of your life, but deep down you feel there is something missing. You feel anxious, depressed or empty, and there is a constant feeling of not fitting in. You notice frustrating patterns you continue to get stuck in and feel dissatisfied with where you are. In therapy you can talk freely and safely about how you feel. Through our work together you will understand your experience in relation to your personal history and everyday life, learn to manage difficult feelings and get the tools to address your needs. This will lead to long-lasting meaningful change.

You're feeling generally dissatisfied, like you drew the short straw. You make it look not too bad on the outside, yet feel unfulfilled in relationships with lover, family, friends, coworkers. You have concerns about overdoing something (drinking, working, internet), or a generalized anxiety, perfectionism, or people-pleasing. I am a highly interactive therapist. I know when to bring in humor--and when to go to the dark places with you. Together we will look at how you got here. Through identifying your beliefs, attitudes and needs around relationships and intimacy, we will find the key to unlocking your wellbeing.

At some point in our lives, we may find that we need outside help to reflect and understand where we keep getting stuck. You may have spent time feeling depressed, anxiously ruminating or suffering panic attacks, feeling inauthentic and purposeless in your work, or turning to substances, eating, or love for comfort. Your relationship to yourself, family, and friends, may be suffering. Often times, we've tried our best to cope on our own before we reach out for help, which can further our feelings of isolation and exhaustion.

I offer you an empathetic, direct, and practical presence in your journey towards healing. After becoming a physician (I am a licensed Obstetrician Gynecologist), I discovered another calling of mine is working with people and their emotions. As a therapist who is also a physician, I bring knowledge and wisdom of medicine, the body, and the mind-body connection. With this background I offer you a unique, experienced, and well-rounded therapist.

If you are reading this, then chances are you are looking to give either yourself and/or a loved one the opportunity to make important life changes. Everyone experiences situations that they need support with. Often, the most beneficial choice one can make is to seek objective guidance. You are the expert of your own life experience. My role is to help you explore this knowledge in a way that brings clarity and fulfillment. My name is Megan Rose and a particular area of specialty and interest is working with adults, couples and families who are wrestling with life transitions and relationship challenges.

We believe that the value of your health goes beyond just your physical health. Emotional, psychological and social health are important in creating overall health and well being. It is our goal at Honeycomb Group to help you become the person, couple or family you want to be, and uncover your full potential.

We all go through challenges in life, and at times they can seem greater than our ability to manage. I would like to offer you my help. I am a clinical psychologist who has been working in the mental health field for over twenty years. My clients include adults and adolescents with diverse needs. My treatment style is warm, compassionate and collaborative. I invite people to explore and clarify what they want, and together we identify the barriers and creative steps to reaching goals.

We are all inherently whole- we've just forgotten... Underneath the tumult and overwhelming flood of uncomfortable emotions is a core unscathed by the stress and trauma. My role is to help you find your way back to your center where life again feels manageable, satisfying, and vibrant. Ultimately you're the expert; yet each step of the way I will be there with you to collaborate and support your efforts. At Gateway Psychiatric, where I practice, clients have the added benefit of seeing their therapist and psychiatrist in one location, where we consistently collaborate for your benefit.

PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT ME VIA PSYCHOLOGY TODAY - USE MY WEBSITE. I believe in taking a strength-based, client-centered approach to psychotherapy, working with you to help you grow toward your best self. The familiar ways you have of dealing with life's complications may not be working; together we can work to identify new positive means of change. I have trained in an integrative model of psychotherapy, and have experience with person-centered, CBT, narrative, existential/humanist therapies, and other methods. No two clients are alike, and I collaborate with my clients to plan customized therapy that works for each person.
