Megan Fisher, LCSW — Therapist in Missouri

Hi there, I'm Megan!

Let's work together and build strategies to manage life's stressors. I like to think of a session as us walking together, talking, and building on your strengths while discussing new learning opportunities or challenging situations. Life can be hard, and no one should feel they have to walk alone.

My focus

I work with a diverse population and am comfortable treating all mental health conditions. I have the most experience with trauma, anxiety, depression, and healthy conflict resolution skills.

My approach

I use evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and a trauma-informed lens. I take a holistic approach to therapy and teach mindfulness coping skills to help you navigate challenges and build resilience.

My communication style

I have a warm and nurturing tone in sessions. I'm transparent and can be blunt when needed, creating a space where you feel supported and heard.

My journey to mental healthcare

I took the scenic route to becoming a therapist. The world offered me harsh realities at a young age, and I met amazing helpers who taught me to find my inner strength, resilience, and healing. Now I get to be a helper myself.

My goals for you

I lean heavily on you to help create your own goals. You pick the primary focus based on what's impacting you most, and I assist with shaping these into specific, measurable, attainable, and time-oriented goals we can work towards together.

Our first session

After brief introductions and setting expectations, we jump in with assessments to ensure we're setting you up for success from the start.
