Great to meet you!

**** I take BCBS, Aetna, & Cigna****

Hi, I’m Megan. I’m really glad you’re here. I’m a licensed therapist who cares deeply about helping people feel more grounded, understood, and connected to themselves again. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, grieving, or just trying to make sense of things, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I show up with compassion, curiosity, and a pace that meets you where you are.

I work with people navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship stress, life transitions, and the quiet heaviness that builds over time. My goal is to create a space where you can be fully yourself, even when life feels messy, uncertain, or heavier than you expected.

My approach to therapy

My style is warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative. I believe healing happens when you feel safe, seen, and supported, and that’s the environment I work hard to create. I’ll meet you exactly where you are and help you gently explore what’s keeping you stuck, while also noticing and celebrating the strengths you already carry.

I often integrate ACT to help you reconnect with your values and move toward a more authentic, grounded life. I also use DBT and CBT tools to support emotional regulation, reduce anxiety, and shift unhelpful patterns. If trauma is part of your story, we can incorporate EMDR to help you process and heal past experiences at a pace that feels right for you.

What you can expect from me

Therapy with me is a space where you can show up exactly as you are. Clients often leave feeling more grounded, more self‐aware, and more connected to their own voice and values. You’ll gain practical tools for managing emotions, navigating relationships, and setting boundaries along with room to slow down, breathe, and reflect
