Megan’s ideal client is a child, adolescent, partners, or parent(s) seeking understanding, meaning, and healing in their life and in their relationships. Often, these are clients that have already begun their journey; they’ve read books, taken quizzes, or have completed a workbook and yet, it’s still not working. The ideal client is ready to try something different to reach their potential. Honoring our humanity and the world we live in, I utilize an umbrella approach that begins with a Trauma-Informed and Attachment Lens. Under the umbrella, are approaches used to meet the client where they are at and enable new skills to develop.

I'm Mark Glover. As someone who has benefited from the services that I now provide, I know that Relationship Counseling is hard work that involves courage as well as commitment. I have also observed how it can be a powerful impetus for hope and a tool to precipitate change, even in the middle of very challenging circumstances. In the context of working with couples, my goal is to help partners to connect more deeply to themselves and to each other through communication and caring.

We spend our lives in relationships. People in our familes, co-workers, friends partners, significant others, and spouses are part of life. Those relationships are valuable and may provide happiness and satisfaction. But relationships can become difficult and strained and sometimes cause us personal stress and frustration. Sometimes we might wonder if a relationship is really positive or not. Working with clients on improving their relationships is what I do most.

Discover the clarity you're looking for! You are looking for relief, for answers, for guidance through the stress that life and relationships inevitably bring. You deserve to thrive in every part of your life. Clients who work with me are ready to see change happen for themselves. Our work together will consist of peeling back the surface layer of your patterns, thoughts, emotions, and relationships to get a clearer picture of the inner workings of what makes you ‘you’.

Do any of the following resonate with you? You are avoiding things. You feel lonely, even when you are with others. You appear to have it all together, but inside you feel raw. Feeling stuck at work, unhappy in relationships, preoccupied, pressured to perform. Everyone keeps talking about 'boundaries' but you're not sure how to create them without feeling guilty. You are an intelligent, caring, and determined person. You want to grow and improve but you're slipping into old patterns. You want to feel present in the moment instead of thinking about what's next.

Living in this world can be hard, and we all need some help making sense of it from time to time. As a therapist, I hold a space full of humility, humor, and deep, genuine care as you explore your relationship with yourself and with those around you. Using a trauma-informed lens, I will walk beside you as you uncover insight, understanding, and resources that you have had all along. I have a passion for helping clients explore ways that we are impacted by oppressive systems and am LGBTQ+, nonmonogamy, and kind affirming. Above all, I will prioritize being authentic and fully present with you as our conversations unfold.

Greetings!! If you are struggling with abuse, fears, relationship issues or troubling habits , we may be the right choice for you.

As an EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) specialist, I work with those who have experienced trauma and the symptoms that arise from it. Struggles with relationships, a lack of motivation, and difficulties in navigating day to day challenges arise when past or present traumatic events make it hard to see progress. I can help you better understand why you may feel hopeless, sad or anxious by helping you to examine and process trauma. To get started, I offer a free 30-minute consultation for prospective clients to help determine if we might be a good fit.

Let's get right to it: your life isn't going the way you want it to and you don't know where to start. You feel misunderstood, frustrated and overwhelmed much of the time. You try to communicate and set boundaries with people but nothing seems to work. You imagine more peaceful interactions and long for connection but find yourself feeling lonely and isolated. You don't have to live like this any longer. You can learn how to stand up for yourself, set limits with others, take care of yourself, solve problems and find peace.

HOPE amid challenges. You've come here looking for hope and have taken the first step toward making changes in your life. I believe you possess a powerful innate source of strength and resilience. This resilience enables you to grow beyond where you are today, heal relationships and change the quality and path of your life. I work with individuals who are bright, motivated people facing challenges with stress, anxiety, depression or dissatisfaction in their relationships. I also work with couples who recognize their relationship deserves more time and attention and who are motivated to seek change.

Are you using unhealthy coping mechanisms to deal with your anxiety and/or depression? Increasingly, the pressures of life, complicated relationships, traumatic events which are or feel beyond our control are leading us to problematic emotional states. Frequently, negative emotions such as shame, anger or hatred, or envy and jealousy, link to negative self-talk, dictating our feelings, thoughts and actions. I find it is usually helpful to apply a holistic approach, working with the mind/body connection which counsels attention to the present moment rather than dwelling in the past or obsessing about the future.
