Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Megan. I’m a licensed mental health therapist with over 15 years of experience in the mental health field, including the past decade providing therapy to adults who are ready for meaningful change. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling.

I help high‐achieving teens and women feel lighter—less guilt, less overthinking, better sleep, and more ease in relationships. Together, we’ll build boundaries, confidence, and a calmer mind so you can actually enjoy your life instead of worrying your way through it.

My approach to therapy

I help high‐achieving teens and women feel lighter—less guilt, less overthinking, better sleep, and more ease in relationships. Together, we’ll build boundaries, confidence, and a calmer mind so you can actually enjoy your life instead of worrying your way through it.

My approach is clear, direct, and grounded in real‐life tools—not sugarcoating. Clients tell me they appreciate that I’m honest, practical, and not afraid to use humor when things feel heavy. If you’re ready for support that actually helps you change, schedule a consult to get started.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is a relaxed, supportive conversation. We’ll talk about what’s been weighing on you, the patterns keeping you stuck, and what you’d like to feel differently. You don’t need to have everything figured out just show up as you are. You’ll leave feeling heard, understood, and clear on next steps.
