I'm Megan. I help people understand why they feel stuck and what it actually takes to change it, not just manage it. I work with adults whose current struggles connect to patterns that were set long before they had a say in them. My work is grounded in how safety and connection shape the brain and body, and in the research on how people build security they didn't get early on.
You can expect a collaborative space and an approach matched to what you're bringing, drawn from several evidence-based methods. What makes my work distinct is where it's rooted: in the neuroscience of safety and human connection. I bring twenty years of interprofessional experience and six as a therapist, so the tools I offer are ones I've watched work, not ones I read about.
I'm a doctoral student in counselor education and human development at the University of Rochester, and my work goes past teaching coping skills. I have an advanced certificate in mind/body connection. I want you to understand how and why your brain and body may be building the barriers you keep running into. When you can see the mechanism, change stops feeling like willpower and starts making sense. In a first session, we get clear on what's bringing you in and start mapping how your history is showing up in your present.

I want you to understand how and why your brain and body may be building the barriers you keep hitting. When you can see the mechanism, change stops feeling like willpower you're supposed to summon and starts making sense. In a first session, we get clear on what brought you in, and I start listening for how your history is showing up in what you're dealing with now. You won't leave with a diagnosis or a plan you didn't agree to. You'll leave with a clearer picture of what we're working on and why.
