Hi there! I am currently accepting new clients for individual therapy. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (tLMHC). I am passionate about empowering individuals to live a wholehearted life and make meaningful progress toward their goals. It is important to me to make sure my clients know they are not alone. In therapy, we will work together to process thoughts, emotions, and determine how themes might impact relationships.
My approach to therapy is humanistic in nature and my goal is for clients to feel heard and supported. I am warm and empathetic, but I also empower individuals to make meaningful changes in their lives. Therapy is tailored to fit each individual client. I offer counseling through different modalities including individual, family, and group therapy.
Therapy can be incredibly valuable to personal healing, well-being, and growth. It can also be intimidating to begin, so I am here when you are ready to start your journey. If the time is now, please email me at Cognizant Counseling, LLC - cognizantdsm.com.
Take the first step to help. Megan Dooley now
