Dr. Megan Garzaglass

You’re not just looking for a therapist. You’re looking for someone who truly understands people, growth, and change. That’s where I come in.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S) and Registered Play Therapist Supervisor (RPT-S) with a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision. With over 12 years of direct counseling experience and nearly three decades of working with individuals across schools, private practice, and outpatient settings, I bring both depth and versatility to the therapeutic process.

My work is grounded in connection. Whether I’m supporting children through play therapy, guiding adults through life transitions, or helping families navigate complex dynamics, I meet each client where they are with authenticity, respect, and intention.

I have extensive experience working with individuals on the autism spectrum and those with diverse learning and developmental needs. My approach is flexible and tailored, drawing from experiential therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Aquatic Relational Experiential Therapy (ARET)TM, and person-centered therapy. This allows me to create a space where clients feel seen, understood, and empowered to make meaningful change.

Clients often tell me they feel both challenged and supported in our work together. That balance is intentional because growth happens when insight meets action and when you feel safe enough to explore both.

If you’re ready to better understand yourself, strengthen your relationships, or support your child’s emotional world, I’m here to walk alongside you in that process.

My approach to therapy is simple. I meet you where you are and build from there.

I focus on your strengths, not just the challenges that brought you in. Every person is different, so I don’t use a one-size-fits-all method. Instead, I pull from a variety of approaches and tailor our work to what actually fits you and your life.

I spend a lot of time working with children with special needs and their families, and I also support adults who want to grow, get unstuck, or perform at a higher level, including athletes working through mental blocks.

In our sessions, we might use practical tools from cognitive-behavioral therapy, hands-on experiential work, or approaches like Aquatic Relational Experiential Therapy. At the core, though, it’s about helping you better understand yourself, build confidence, and find ways to move forward that feel realistic and meaningful.

I often help clients with things like self-esteem, parenting challenges, family stress, anxiety, grief, ADHD, autism, and identity-related concerns, including LGBTQ+ support. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable, supported, and able to be yourself, while also helping you make real, lasting changes.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and it’s normal to feel a mix of emotions in that first session. My goal is to make it comfortable, supportive, and genuinely helpful from the start.

In our first session, we’ll focus on getting to know each other. I’ll ask about your background, current challenges, and what you hope to achieve in therapy. There’s no pressure to share everything at once. You can go at your own pace. Together, we’ll begin to identify practical steps toward the changes you want to see.

I believe every person is capable of shaping their own future. Progress doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Getting just 1% better is still progress, and those small steps add up in powerful ways.

My approach is affirming, strengths-based, and goal-oriented. I strive to create a space where you feel respected, understood, and free to be yourself. My pronouns are she/her/hers, and I am committed to providing an inclusive environment for all clients.
