Look, I know reaching out for help is not easy. You might be thinking-how can this person even help me? She doesn’t know me. She doesn’t know my struggles. That’s exactly right. I don’t. Building that trust and rapport is the first step in therapy. I’m not here to tell you what to do. I’m here to create a space where you feel seen, understood, and that your pain is heard. Therapy can help support and guide clients to finding their version of solace. I strive to help you bridge the gap between knowledge and action. Doing this alone is not easy. I’d like to help.
I provide a welcoming and well decorated office space for those experiencing high stress environments. I specialize in working with first responders, athletes and those experiencing high pressure, high stress jobs. You can expect a smooth process from the start with the highest professionalism meant to make therapy accessible.
Reaching out for help can be a vulnerable feeling. Rest assured, in our sessions you will feel heard, accepted as you are and who you are becoming, and supported through the entire process. I am not here to judge you only to provide a safe space to do the work you need to live a happier and more fulfilling life.

Each person has different needs for therapy. Our first session, I'll learn about you and you'll learn about what to expect from me. We'll collaborate and figure out what you need most from therapy. Most of my clients see a difference in their symptoms after 4-6 weeks of weekly sessions.

Meghan is so much more than a therapist- she's someone you'll genuinely enjoy talking to. She's funny, kind, and has the uncanny ability to make you feel comfortable, all while helping you get to the bottom of what's keeping you stuck. Highly recommend!

I start off with person centered followed by cognitive behavioral and a mix of process experiential. I also implement other interventions as needed. The goal is to help reduce intensity of symptoms within 4-6 sessions.
