My name is Meghan E. Farina, MA, LPC, NCC and I welcome you as you are! I am a licensed professional counselor with experience treating clients who are dealing with difficult life transitions, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, substance abuse, codependency, eating disorders, chronic pain, trauma, self esteem issues, and general stressors. I have experience and expertise in helping clients recover from narcissistic abuse and childhood trauma. My goal is to provide a warm, empathic, and non-judgmental space to support and empower individuals to overcome life’s challenges. I believe in an integrative approach to counseling to heal the mind, body, and soul.
My theoretical approach to counseling includes Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, and Person Centered Therapy. My therapeutic style involves a warm, honest, and collaborative relationship and meeting a client where they are.
I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process. “One small crack does not mean that you are broken, it means that you were put to the test and you didn’t fall apart.” — Linda Poindexter

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.
