My name is Meghan and I am a therapist practicing in person out of Orange County and virtually throughout the state of California. My early familial experience with divorce has made me especially skilled at working with people in resolving relational conflicts and holding space for different perspectives. I love working with two or more people in the room, tackling issues related to parent-child relationships, couple relationships, and divorce & co-parenting. The core tenants of my work are non-judgement and positivity.

I strive to help my clients achieve lasting change though natural means such as self-compassion, mindfulness, and positive empowerment.

My main goal is to help clients solved their presenting problems with the least amount of sessions possible.

Psychotherapy provides an opportunity to sort through your mind in the presence of someone trained to help make "order out of chaos." I am a clinical psychologist licensed to practice in the state of California with more than 10 years experience treating adults. Areas of difficulty for which I provide help include: relationships, parenting, spirituality, aging, divorce, depression, anxiety, and trauma.

My 25 years experience in private practice working with children, teens, adults and couples have led to comfortable skills in facilitating change. I work very hard to really get to know my clients and work with their personal situations. Every individual, couple or family has their unique dynamics, needs, strengths and focus of change. You won't be put in a "diagnostic box".

Life is a journey, and sometimes there are bumps and pitfalls along the way. When you experience a bump in the road, a pitfall, or are tasked with deciding which road to take, it can be natural to feel anxious, sad, angry, and/or overwhelmed. My job, as a licensed marriage and family therapist for over the past decade, has been and is to walk alongside you and help you navigate these bumps, pitfalls, and decisions. I will help you identify what your goals for the therapeutic process are, will provide an empathic ear, will brainstorm with you, and will create a safe space for you to talk about and sort out your problems!

Despite your hard work, does it seem like problems continue to pop up for you? You might consider your family disorganized or even chaotic. You have noticed a shift in your child or children and are concerned, it may be caused by divorce or a loss in the family, or other events that cause stress. You are worried about their socialization and they seem to just not be themselves. Friends, family and maybe even teachers are expressing their own concerns regarding your child. You are not sure if it's your parenting or what more you can provide your child. This is scary, overwhelming and it takes courage to admit it isn't working.

I'd like to help... Your Relationship Within Yourself and With Others. I believe your mind and body work together; that you can create your own happiness by how you choose to respond to your feelings, and act towards yourselves and the world around you. If you are ready for change in your life, or would like to explore new ways of thinking and living your life, my Cognitive-Behavioral, Solution Focused, and Equine Assisted Psychotherapy approaches may help. My goals for you are to receive new insight/tools that you can use to help create a better, happier life.

Is your child controlling your household with their demands, tantrums and power struggles? Are you feeling exhausted, out of control and defeated?

When thinking about how to introduce myself, I invariably return to what I personally require when choosing a therapist – genuine commitment, personal sincerity and clinical expertise. I'm dedicated to the core belief that a good therapist is one who gently guides a client to uncover the emotional stumbling blocks causing anxiety, pain or inertia so they can move forward in their life. My therapeutic style exudes compassion, while equally engaging in honest, candid conversations to uncover the personal pain points, challenges, and stressors that ultimately brought the client to therapy.
