Hi there, I'm Meagan, and I'm here to support you on your journey. If you're grappling with anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship challenges, or feeling overwhelmed, you're in the right place. I have a specialized skill set in working with Mom's who are feeling stressed and parents who are feeling burnt out. I have a proven track record of helping folks navigate various aspects of relational and sexual challenges. I know first hand that life can be overwhelming and so is choosing a therapist. Let me share more information with you so you have all of the information that you need to make an informed decision about your health
I bring over a decade of expertise in a variety of evidence based psychotherapy, including: CBT, DBT, MI and ACT. I work from a trauma informed, antiracist, 2slgbtqia+ ally, harm reduction, sex positive, consumer survivor informed, feminist approach. What does all that mean? It means that I appreciate and accept YOU for YOU, no matter who you are.
I would love to connect with you over the phone or video call to chat about how we might be able to work together to overcome obstacles, set achievable goals, and empower you to live your best.
