More about Meg
- 12 years' experience
- Female
- LMHC
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor, Nationally Certified Clinical Mental Health Counselor in Massachusetts with over 15 years of experience in the counseling and education fields including positions as a special educator, secondary school adjustment counselor, emergency department crisis clinician, and a graduate online instructor. I have been working as a therapist in private practice for over 10 years specializing in adolescent and adult mental/emotional health, ADHD, anxiety, depression, healthy living, family/behavior management strategies, parenting, and educational issues.
I use an integrative, intuitive, and interactive approach to counseling to create a non-judgmental and relaxed environment. I believe that healing begins with feeling heard and understood. I tailor my therapeutic approach to meet individual needs and empower clients with a focus on emotional and neurobiological exploration.
Seeking support demonstrates self-awareness and readiness for growth. I aspire to assist you in navigating a path towards self-discovery.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

She’s wonderful!
Thank you for everything, you have been instrumental in helping me navigate life and its challenges throughout this entire time.
Meg is a thoughtful, insightful and encouraging voice of reason. I really have appreciated our conversations that allowed me to self reflect and put perceived problems & past pains to rest
I really like and appreciate the questions I get from Meg. She helps me to look at things differently. I’ve only had a few sessions with her so far but I’ve already grown so much thanks to her help.
Meg Kennedy is fantastic. She knows what she is talking about, gives room for the patient to speak their mind and always offers a relevant point of view of the topic on hand. She is engaged, easy to talk to and has a great personality. In a short time, she has helped me through conflicts that have taken me months to think through on my own time.
Thank you, Meg. I appreciate everything
