I have worked in the home, community, school, and in-patient hospital settings. I enjoy working with challenging children, families, and individuals that other professionals have struggled to connect with.

Life stressors may often times become too overwhelming for one individual to handle. I am dedicated to helping you explore these experiences, identify a support system, and assist you through rebuilding the necessary skills which will help you manage those daily life stressors. I have worked with individuals, couples, and families of a diverse background, which has strengthened my multi-cultural lens. I provide a warm and strength-based environment to help you reach the best version of yourself. Regardless of what you might have heard, it is OK to seek mental health support. Engaging in therapy is simply another form of self-care.

Do you feel overwhelmed both mentally and physically? Are you not sure what the feelings that you're having are, why you are having them, or don't know how to cope with them? I currently help adolescents, and young adults learn about anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and trauma. I would love to also branch out and work with adults as well as the current population I work with, but just haven't got the chance yet! I also help clients identify where these uncomfortable feelings could be coming from and ways that they can manage those feelings to be able to increase their quality of life.

I want to help first generation immigrant women because the struggles and challenges are unique. It is very difficult to find a therapist who has also experienced the generational/cultural views that often impede on our growth. It is very troublesome when we are trying to stay in tune with our cultural values while being modernized by American culture. First Generation Immigrants often feel the struggle of maintaining a balance and feeling inadequate because of unique morals.

Imagine a life in which your challenges - depression, anxiety, fear, loneliness - are no longer holding you back. Feeling worried, guilty, lost, or unsure of how to connect with others can feel uncomfortable and intimidating. When we worry, struggle to find meaning, or feel a lack of motivation and clarity, it can affect our mood, relationships, and overall experience. When your challenges are not holding you back, you can have deeper relationships, greater satisfaction with work & personal pursuits, and less worry about issues like finances, happiness, family, etc.

My name is Megan and my journey has not been a straight road. In 2012 I decided I wanted a career change and went back to school to be a therapist. With a Bachelor’s degree in marketing, I luckily did not have to completely start over but did need some psych classes before I started graduate school. In 2015 I graduated with my Master’s of Arts in Counseling Psychology.
