An experienced therapist, I have spent 20 years helping young adults and working professionals who have challenges with Attention, Executive Function, Memory, and Learning. My secondary specialty is solution-focused counseling for life transitions and decision-making. Stress and anxiety often increase during phases of transition, and counseling can help you decide how to implement change without feeling overwhelmed. I also offer expert coaching in communication, boundary-setting, and taking radical self-care to center your wellbeing amidst life's demands and responsibilities.

Hello, and welcome. I’m Dr. Meghan Deneen, and one of my greatest passions as a therapist is supporting survivors of trauma, including those who have experienced sexual and domestic violence. I know that reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, and I strive to create a space where you feel safe, heard, respected, and never judged. My hope is to help you reconnect with your sense of safety, agency, and self-worth while honoring your experiences and moving at a pace that feels right for you.

I believe that therapy is a collaborative process. Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, and that is completely normal. I encourage clients to be open to new experiences, even when they feel uncomfortable. One of the hardest things we can do is sit with our feelings, yet it is also one of our greatest strengths. I invite you to go at your own pace, ask questions, and take an active role in your care. My approach is collaborative, person-centered, and deeply empathic. I prioritize creating a warm, non-judgmental space where you feel safe, understood, and respected.

I specialize in working with women who are experiencing sexual health problems such as low sexual desire, difficulty becoming aroused, and difficulty reaching orgasm. When physiological factors are ruled out as explanations for these symptoms, women are often left feeling like change isn't possible for them. In reality, sexual and emotional health are closely linked, and there is a path forward when we start to explore and better understand this connection. In addition to this work, I specialize in working with couples and individuals who have experienced sexual trauma, infidelity, anxiety and depression.

Life experiences, transitions, and relationships provide both an opportunity to be challenged and to grow. In my practice, I welcome adults, couples, adolescents and families who wish to improve the quality of any dimension of their lives - from professional, family and parenting relationships to emotional, interpersonal, or physical challenges. Drawing upon specialized training focused on gaining insight (psychodynamic), building skills to manage emotions and behaviors (cognitive behavioral) and understanding relationships (family systems/relational), I work closely with individuals to develop understanding and identify goals that address the distinct factors that may be inhibiting life pursuits or interfering with personal, academic, or professional satisfaction and success.

I utilize a trauma-informed, person-in-environment approach that recognizes the importance of both individual and environmental factors that influence a person's well-being and behavior. There is no "one size fits all" approach, therefore I adopt techniques from varying practice modalities to best meet the needs of each individual client.

I believe therapy is more than managing symptoms; it is an intentional practice of self-reflection that fosters clarity. In today’s world, we often have the right words to describe our pain, but knowing "therapy lingo" is not the same as finding true healing.
I prioritize a strong therapeutic alliance as the foundation for shifting from intellectualizing your life to actually experiencing it. Together, we bring curiosity to "stuck" patterns and beliefs, improving the relationship with yourself and others. By bridging the gap between your inner world and your daily life, we work toward lasting transformation.

Psychologist Carl Rogers said, “In my early professional years I was asking the question: How can I treat, or cure, or change this person? Now I would phrase the question in this way: How can I provide a relationship which this person may use for his own personal growth?” My clinical approach is to provide a therapeutic connection that helps clients acknowledge, bear, and put into perspective all the struggles, messiness, small delights, bliss and everything in between that we experience as part of the human condition. Therapy is an opportunity to delve into that quarrel with the self.

Some of my clients struggle to love well; others struggle with difficult emotions. But all of my clients juggle the sometimes contradictory demands of love, sex and vulnerability. All people want to feel safe and loved, but some are overwhelmed by the intensity of close connection. They want to feel known, but they are also allergic to intimacy. They want to feel attached, but they are also deeply distrustful of others. I also enjoy helping these clients in couples therapy to navigate the intersections of intimacy, vulnerability and sexuality. I work with a multicultural perspective, celebrating diversity of all kinds.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors.
Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
