Hi there, I'm Meg. If you're feeling stuck, losing sleep, have racing thoughts, or are realizing you simply don't feel like yourself anymore, you may find yourself searching for tools and connection. In therapy, we can work collaboratively to unpack your story, consider paths to work towards the person you want to be, and build tools along the way to help you navigate the road ahead. I work with individuals 18 and older who have experienced trauma, anxiety, depression, are struggling with a life transition, or are developing their own identity at any life phase.

I’m glad you’re here right now, reading through different bios. The interest you’re taking in yourself is huge. I recognize starting with a counselor may feel daunting, but I am here to make that process as open and as safe as possible. Many come to therapy feeling burned out, anxious, or unsure why things feel so difficult despite their best efforts. If you’re feeling alone, stuck, or overwhelmed by the same patterns showing up in your life, therapy can be a place to slow down, make sense of what’s happening, and begin creating meaningful, sustainable change.

Many people come to therapy because something in their life is no longer working the way it used to. Sometimes that looks like anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, or a sense of feeling stuck. Other times it’s harder to describe; it could be a feeling that you’re carrying something heavy, repeating the same patterns, or struggling to understand why life feels more difficult than it should. I work with adults who want more than temporary symptom relief. Together, we explore the experiences, relationships, and patterns that shape how you understand yourself, others, and the challenges you face.

My practice is in network with BCBS (Anthem/FEP/Carefirst) and Sentara.
My practice focuses on working with adolescents and adults navigating issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, mood instability, emotional regulation, and relationship difficulties, including those within non-traditional relationship structures (e.g., ENM, Poly). When I work with someone I want them to know that they are safe bringing their entire person to session. While that trust and safety takes time, we will hopefully build that trust and work together on creating the life the you are hoping to lead.

My mission is to help you improve the quality of your life. Many people struggle with depression or anxiety stemming from marital or personal relationship issues, financial concerns or other life-altering circumstances. For 32 years I have helped clients work through troubling life situations. Your past does NOT predict your future. Who you can become is not defined by who you have been, who you think you are now, or by what experiences may have impacted your life to this point. My role is to challenge and empower you to transform your life, helping you to change your consistent behaviors to produce improved outcomes.

Are you experiencing stress that is impacting your life? Are your relationships struggling? I believe in the importance of creating and maintaining healthy and fulfilling relationships through my work with children, adolescents, families and couples to achieve the relationships they desire. Most of the time things happen and we manage fine, but sometimes things happen that throw us for a loop and we need some additional support. Using Cognitive-Behavior Therapy (thoughts and behaviors), Family Systems Therapy, and Play Therapy as appropriate, I help individuals and families identify and use their strengths to facilitate their goals for growth and change.

I work with adults navigating a range of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, OCD, and bipolar disorder, as well as challenges related to eating and body image such as binge eating, bulimia, anorexia, and OSFED.
