Welcome to your next safe space!
I often wonder what would be helpful for potential clients to know when they’re looking for a new/different therapist which led me to ask for anonymous responses from clients of what they may describe to a trusted person about their walk with me and here are some of their responses:
When asked by another friend of theirs about their journey in therapy… “Megan feels like home, the place where I can take off all the masks and truly meet my authentic self, without judgement or fear of judgment.”
“I have worked over 5 years with Megan on and off through grief, through life changes, celebrations, and struggles. Her ability to sit with me in any situation keeps me coming back to therapy time and time again.”
“As a Black woman I was very hesitant to meet with Megan because I was seeking a BIPOC provider, however I was pleasantly surprised at Megan’s awareness, sensitivity, training and understanding of Black culture. She is truly an ally and I will continue to share this with anyone who asks.”
“As a queer person, finding someone who has taken the extra step in learning about my culture without making me feel like I have to be the expert has truly been one of the best therapy journeys I have ever had.”
My style provides a direct and honest approach to therapy–I am here to navigate and help facilitate change in meaningful and direct ways while also providing a safe space. Helping the helper (therapists, nurses, first responders, care givers, etc.) is an area of this field I find deep meaning and fulfillment in. As well as individuals navigating new/existing chronic illnesses especially as a HAES provider and someone who lives with chronic illness as well. I also have a deep love of working with the LGBTQIA2+, kink, ethical non monogamy (EnM) individuals and anyone who identifies as part of the BIPOC community.
I very much value a relational, holistic and whole person approach and tend to tailor each person’s care to their identified needs. I am most therapeutically aligned with Existentialism/Gestalt/Humanistic (here and now based) /Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy modalities; however, I tend to pull my resources and education from all areas to cultivate a plan/tool(s) for each individual (and or couple) I am seeing.
“I can’t wait to begin this journey with you!”
