Megan is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) who values the autonomy and dignity of her clients, encouraging a collaborative experience to lead the therapeutic process. She is intentional in setting a non-judgemental and safe space for clients to deepen their understanding of themselves, as well as their relationships, communication, and boundaries.

Megan has worked in various settings within the mental health field since 2015. She has experience working with individuals across the lifespan, ranging from age 8 to 85, through a variety of modalities, including outpatient, family, couples, and group therapy. 

In Megan’s earlier career, she specialized in working with young children and family systems. She enjoys providing support and psychoeducation around infant and early childhood mental health, pre and postpartum support, and parenting and attachment styles. Since starting with Advance Psychotherapy Practice in February 2024, Megan has expanded her work to include aging adults, transition to adulthood, and couples, as well as other relationship challenges.

Megan uses a combination of therapeutic approaches based on the collaborative treatment plan created in partnership with her clients, often incorporating techniques from Psychoanalysis, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Art, Play and Experiential Therapy. She has successfully completed the Gottman Method Couples Therapy - Level 1 and Level 2 Certification. 

Megan thoughtfully begins therapy with each client by discussing and creating a treatment plan that focuses on goals for therapy and collaborative termination planning. She approaches therapy with the belief that everyone, from childhood to adulthood, has intrinsic resilience and strengths that can help to guide them through challenges. She believes that clients are the experts on their own experience and that their voices should spearhead the direction of therapy, while also challenging patterns of maladaptive thoughts and behaviors to support clients in deep growth and healing.
