Hi, my name is Megan! First I want to honor the steps you took to get to this place of looking for increased support. Whether you're struggling with life transitions, grief, or just feeling like things aren't working as well for you as you'd like, some external support and perspective can be invaluable to getting back on track.

Welcome! I hope that you find helpful information here. I am an addictions and mental health counselor, and I am passionate about providing you with quality counseling for both addiction and mental health disorders. I work with adults at this time, emphasizing trauma-informed care and holistic wellness. My theoretical orientation is eclectic, so I use various strategies to best serve you, including humanistic, mindfulness, strengths, and values-based approaches.

There are times when we feel stressed beyond repair, alone, misunderstood, helpless, even hopeless. During these difficult times it can be hard to ask for help. You've taken the first step, now I can assist you on the road towards healing, peace, and happiness. Therapy as a collaborative partnership; one that’s nurtured in a non-judgmental and safe environment. I utilize psychodynamic and mindfulness perspectives to guide you toward understanding your thinking and behavior, resulting in a deeper sense of self. I will help you find purpose and meaning in this world, so you can rediscover joy and live an authentic and satisfying life!

An ideal client for me is anyone that wants to engage in therapy and better themselves, situation and their life. I love the variety of clients I see and am ready to meet them where they are at. Whether its a life transition, daily life stressors, relationship challenges or something more long term, I am here to help. I enjoy seeing teenagers and adults.

I work with people of all ages—providing diagnostic and psychological evaluations for children as young as 2, as well as adolescents, and adults; and individual therapy for adolescents. I also provide Dialectical Behavior Therapy and am the clinical director of Dakota Family Services' DBT Program for Adolescents. I am a firm believer in using treatments that are well-supported by research and that match the client's goals.

I want you to imagine leaving your home in the morning, navigating the busy roads to work. You’re tired, barely focused and dreading the day ahead. You pull into the parking lot of your employer, taking a deep breath. You grab your work things and walk towards the office. You stop, frozen in the sea of mental waves, a thousand thoughts crashing into one another, unable to organize them. Everything stops for a moment, a beacon of clarity forms in the distance and you’re able to hear one calm thought. You ask yourself “am I on the right path?”

Is your medical or mental health impacting your day-to-day life? Do you feel like you or your teen can’t keep up with daily tasks or has had a decline in independence/function? If so, you are not alone. Occupational Therapy (OT) focuses on what is meaningful for you. OT emphasizes the "doing" portion of therapy. OT could be addressing anything from basic hygiene skills, creating structure/routines, independent living skills, coping/emotional regulation, cognitive skill building and much more. Your goals are our goals in Occupational Therapy.

Part of our living experience are the challenges we face as we learn and grow as individuals, within our families, and communities. These challenges, and at times struggles, can be the precursors to new opportunities and personal growth. From our most difficult experiences emerges strength we did not know we possessed, talents, and abilities which we did not know we embodied. I know you have all within you which you need to change, acquire, and become that which you are seeking. The privilege of my professional work is to aid in the full discovery of your strengths, talents, and capabilities.

Taking the step to seek out therapy, for yourself or your child, can be difficult. I am here to make this step feel safe and easy. I work with children ages four through young adulthood who are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma and/or other behavioral or emotional concerns. I enjoy working with individuals struggling with emotional and physical outbursts, modeling and practicing skills to better respond to stressors. My approach to therapy is strength based and solution focused which encourages you to build the confidence and skills to overcome lifes obstacles.

It is a humbling privilege to witness the resilient nature of the human spirit in my work. I support people on their path towards acceptance and peace within themselves and their lives. Life undeniably brings challenges. Anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, stress, low self-worth, and difficult relationships are all normal human experiences; yet, they can feel unbearable at times. Learning to navigate these can be transformative. My goal is to join you in that experience and offer support and compassion along the way.

Jen strives to ensure each client feels safe and supported throughout the treatment process and feels that a collaborative working relationship is the cornerstone to personal growth. She works with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families.

I work with a vide variety of adolescent and adult clients as well as couples and families of all ages. Most of my clients come in for an intake session to explain their situation and start to develop therapeutic goals. Weekly 50-minute sessions are recommended in most situations to start, but as progress is made, many clients shift to less frequent counseling sessions. I am dedicated to establishing a trusting professional relationship based on respect and understanding the unique history, perspective, and needs of my client.

Are you overwhelmed with life stressors or trauma? Struggling with time management or motivation? Maybe you feel anxious, irritable, or depressed? It is time for you to get the help and support you deserve. You don't have to face these challenges or discover solutions alone. I will honor your story while sitting with you in your pain. I will offer space for safety and connection. Whether the focus is personal or professional, I will help you develop healthier responses to stress, learn concrete coping skills, and create a plan to improve your overall mental health and wellness.
