My approach is grounded in unconditional positive regard while providing honest feedback and gently guiding you toward your goals. I draw from a variety of treatment modalities to create a personalized plan that works for you.

She’s really helped me on my journey and in some big realizations about my trauma, and how it affects me. She makes me feel really validated, but also helps me to question and unpack certain unhealthy thoughts and behaviors. I’ve been seeing Megan for a year and I really am so grateful I started therapy with her.
