Hello! My name is Megan Smith, I am a therapist specialized in treating trauma, complex trauma, PTSD, anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, and emotional dysregulation. Clients typically come to me with concerns such as, “I feel stuck and cannot get out of this cycle”, “I always seem to be in survival mode”, “I have no idea where to even start”, and more. Many issues such as traumatic or negative life event or hardships can leave clients struggling with self-doubt, low self-esteem, feeling unsafe, difficulty connecting with others, cycles of negative emotional and behavioral patterns, and relationship problems.
By bringing together compassionate therapy and specialized treatments including EMDR, Cognitive Processing Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I am privileged to be able to help clients understand themselves, disrupt negative beliefs and thought patterns, resolve painful feelings and memories, and find long-awaited recovery and healing.
Although stress and hardship cannot be entirely avoided in life, there can be growth and a brighter future ahead. I’d love to be a part of your journey. If you are ready to get started—reach out by phone or visit the website to schedule a free consult!

I work with clients who may be struggling with issues related to past/recent trauma and hardships. We begin by establishing a therapeutic relationship built on trust and explore the nature of the difficulties. We then work together to develop a therapeutic game plan to develop skills and address the underlying source(s) of the problems.

I often use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing EMDR) in my practice. Many times present-day symptoms are a result of past experiences that leave us with negative thoughts and painful emotions that remain stuck. We learn to protect ourselves from learned danger. EMDR uses bilateral stimulation to build internal resources, disrupt negative beliefs, and relieve painful emotions.
