Ever feel like everyday is akin to jumping on the hamster wheel?! You expend all your energy day after day and it leaves you feeling empty, anxious, and overwhelmed. Whether you are a parent/caregiver, teen trying to navigate the world, or just someone that feels anxious and overloaded by life's expectations, I want to come alongside you and help you to reach your fullest potential. I believe through the power of relationship and the therapeutic alliance, you possess the tools to navigate all of the road blocks and stepping stones in your life. My hope is that you walk away from each session feeling heard and valued and the skills you are able to tap in to will help alleviate some of those feelings of overwhelm.

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.

Meghan is so amazing!! She has really helped me over the past months and I would highly recommend her to anyone struggling with anxiety.
Meghan has been the best therapist I’ve ever worked with, regardless if telehelp or traditional. She is kind and empathetic, and also provides relevant actionable steps to make progress in areas needing help. Most importantly, she validates my feelings and situation in a way that feels genuinely sincere and gives me space to be ok with where I am at, without it seeming like she is feeling bad for me. Not only do I look forward to each session because it flows naturally without feeling forced, I also leave each session feeling so much better even if it went to some tough places.
She's great
Very kind and sensitive to my needs
Meghan is highly responsive, empathetic, and willing to do research to help address issues I have that she may be less familiar with. She has helped me and I recommend her.
