My name is Meg, and I believe that disconnection from oneself and others causes pain and suffering. Counseling is a journey where you and I, side by side, can navigate your struggles and joys together. I recognize that you have lived an entire life before joining me in counseling. Because of this, I will view you holistically and especially consider your upbringing, cultural background, and spiritual identity, among other important factors. As a counselor, I desire to provide a safe place for you to express yourself, reach your potential, and connect with yourself and others.

I believe healing happens in relationships. It is through connection found in meaningful relationships that emotional wounds begin to heal. Trauma, depression, and shame are the common thieves of connection, both in ourselves and with others. I view therapy and the client/therapist relationship as powerful tools for learning how to rebuild meaningful connections in your life. It is my goal to provide you with a place that feels calm, compassionate, and accepting as you work toward your healing and recovery goals. I am open to providing services to adolescents and adults.

Men's lives are undergoing a remarkable evolution. Only a generation ago to become a strong man generally meant learning to avoid being tripped up or held back by what you felt. Now men are encouraged and even expected to "know themselves" and be more emotionally present in their marriages and other important relationships. The advantages of greater emotional self-awareness include: (1) greater depth of connection with your spouse, children and close male friends, (2) better access to your own emotional strengths including your stress tolerance and resilience, and (3) an enhanced sense of purpose and personal meaning.

I am a therapist who feels absolutely passionate about helping women find the very best of themselves.

Making the decision to change is often difficult as there is comfort in holding onto old ways of thinking or patterns of behavior even when they are ineffective and no longer serve us well. My goal is to help guide you through the change or healing process. My therapeutic approach is supportive and collaborative. I work with adults and older adolescents with anxiety, depression, and mood disorders. I also have significant experience working with individuals experiencing life transitions, relationship/marital issues, stress management or coping skill difficulties, grief and loss, abuse and trauma, and substance use disorders.

For parents and students alike, adolescence can be a turbulent time. Watching our children struggle can be stressful. It takes a lot of patience, understanding and adjusting to meet the needs of kids in this age group. It's not uncommon for parents to feel that they are engaging in one power struggle after the next...or perhaps feeling a sense of guilt, frustration or helplessness, as they start to question the effectiveness of their parenting and/or the overall emotional well-being of their son or daughter.

I deeply value creating a space where the present moment is used to become more aware, conscious and compassionate about one’s own internal experience and believe from that space change and healing occurs. I follow a psychodynamic approach and tend to look at spaces and dynamics with an emphasis on attachment and attachment styles. However, I also understand the value of integrating a structured approach that provides concrete tools to facilitate change; I am a deep believer that that through well-targeted and intentional activity, people can begin to engage in their life differently.

I believe the relationship between therapist and client is integral to positive therapeutic outcomes. I enjoy helping clients discover their own creative potential in addressing the life issues they face, so I tailor therapy to suit each person's distinctive needs and desired well-being. I am interested in serving children and parents: for over a decade, I have worked with hundreds of children and parents in the field of music, and the understanding I have gained through this work greatly enriches the therapeutic process, and gives me valuable perspectives on developmental, familial, and parenting issues.

One of my ideal clients would be identified as a Highly Sensitive Person by Elaine Aron, PhD. It can be difficult to know how best to guard your energy while still being available for the people and activities you love. Another client might share they would like to reach their fullest potential and would appreciate a trainer of sorts to do so. Someone else's needs might center around increased ability to maintain emotional stability, even when disagreeing with a loved one.

I provide therapy for individuals and couples navigating a variety of issues. I particularly enjoy working with adults dealing with anxiety related to perfectionism, over-functioning, burnout, or codependency / boundary issues. I also work with those navigating relationship challenges, family of origin issues, religious trauma, or faith transitions. A good therapeutic fit for my approach is someone interested in doing deep introspective work, exploring the roots underneath presenting problems and including the body in the process.
