About Me

*I am anticipating being able to accept a few new clients in January 2025. Right now, I am not adding clients to my waiting list, and I do not have any available spots yet.
There have been some issues with my contact form on the site recently, so please reach out to my email or phone number to connect with me there.*

Hi, I’m Meaghan! I’m a licensed mental health counselor and certified clinical trauma professional. I know that it can be intimidating to consider therapy, so I appreciate the steps you’ve already taken

 by arriving here.

It is my goal to create a personalized and flexible approach to support every client who sees me. I know that you are not merely a collection of diagnosable symptoms, but a fully unique individual with many factors impacting your wellbeing. I work to provide a holistic approach.

When working with me, you can expect that I will keep things real. For therapy to work effectively, it is imperative that you can build trust that allows you to be honest with me, but it is equally necessary that I reflect that honesty back to you. I may tell you things that you want to hear, but I will also tell you things I believe you need to hear to help you achieve growth. I will respect and honor your wishes and your values. I won’t guide you in my own direction, but take care to support

 you on your own journey.

From the moment you reach out, I’m on your team.

Specialties

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

There are many misconceptions about OCD. This can cause people to struggle without a diagnosis or treatment for this condition. OCD is not all about hand washing and organizing. I know firsthand how consuming OCD can be. Some traditional anxiety therapy techniques can exacerbate symptoms of OCD, so it is very important to work with someone who has experience with OCD. I have a thorough understanding of this condition and can help clients get back to the life they want to live.

Transgender Support

I have experience working with many clients on the transition journey. I understand that transition is not a goal of every transgender individual, and I will support you with whatever this means for you. I want to make clear that I do not expect clients to prove their gender for me. You are who you say you are, and we can work together to build trust in yourself and who you want to be.

PTSD

I am trained in SAFE (Somatic and Attachment-based) EMDR. This is my primary method for treating PTSD, but I incorporate other tools through the process. EMDR was developed specifically for treating PTSD, but is now used to reduce symptoms of many mental health issues.
