Hi! My name is Meghan, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a background working in trauma and mental health, more specifically with Sexual and Domestic Violence. With my background in trauma, I have found that it lends to working well with a variety of different presenting issues such as depression, anxiety, family issues and life changes.
As a therapist, I believe in your story and your individual experience. A space that is safe, comfortable, & free of judgement is essential for your success. It is important that you are in control of your own therapeutic experience, and I believe my role as a therapist is to serve as a guide & emotional support for you through your own journey. To provide a more authentic process and promote psycho-education, I aim to actively engage with you through discussions and person-centered support. “Pain is real, but so is hope”, and that is the main goal of my therapeutic approach: instill hope.
Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in unhelpful patterns of thinking? You don’t have to figure it out on your own. I work with adults who want to feel more balanced, confident, and in control of their lives, but aren’t sure where to start. Together, we’ll explore the thoughts, emotions, and experiences that are getting in your way and gently build new ways of coping so you can move toward the life you want with more ease and self-compassion.
I have over 40 years of experience in mental health practice. I believe that we work together to help you be the best version of yourself. I am trauma therapy certified, anger management certified and work with teens and adults. I specialize in anxiety, depression and trauma issues as well as Adult Children of Alcoholics. We are a team working together to help you improve your life situations
I'm an LCSW practicing in Indiana, Florida, Ohio, Colorado, Alabama, Virginia, and Illinois. I specialize prenatal, childhood, and adolescent trauma, OCD, eating disorders, and ARFID. I currently see clients from age 2y through adulthood. I'm available for telehealth services and offer virtual psychotherapy and play therapy sessions.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Charlottesville, VA
Searching for family therapists in Charlottesville starts with finding care that matches what your family is navigating. Family therapy can support parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, communication breakdowns, and relationship strain across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare therapists in Charlottesville, VA, look for bios that mention family systems, parent-child relationships, couples counseling, or marriage counseling if those areas match your needs.
In a smaller city like Charlottesville, the number of local in-person options may be more limited than in larger Virginia markets. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still letting you find a therapist Charlottesville families can work with through insurance. Family therapy may include the full family, smaller groups, couples, or individual family members, depending on the goals of care. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for appointment availability, session structure, therapeutic approach, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Therapy in Charlottesville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find Charlottesville counseling options by showing therapists who are accepting new patients and offer upfront cost estimates after you enter your coverage details. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can check your specific coverage for Charlottesville when you search. You can browse profiles, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
