Welcome! As your potential therapist, I would like you to know that I really value the relationship that we create together in therapy. Before we have a chance to meet or if you want to have a better understanding of who I am, I have included some information about myself so you can decide if we might be a good fit. Having an open and trusting relationship is very important in making the most of our time together and getting the support you need. I completed my master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Marquette University. I have been in the mental health field for over 13 years, and I have enjoyed using my training as a licensed psychotherapist to help many different people from all walks of life. I have been meeting with clients online for the past 9 years. I am passionate about empowering others, creating awareness around difficult situations, and ultimately supporting people in creating meaningful lives and relationships. I primarily use a cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) framework which means we problem-solve together to understand and change the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that interfere with your fulfillment and success. I also often incorporate other theories and skills (e.g., mindfulness, psychodynamic, etc.) with the understanding that each person's treatment should be individualized to their specific needs and preferences. Prior clients have shared that they find me to be warm, welcoming, and non-judgmental. I look forward to meeting you!

Thank you for checking my profile. Congratulations for getting this far in reaching out to a stranger for help. It's never easy. I know from personal experience. I have been a Social Worker for 34 years. I love being able to help people make the changes they know they need to make. If you don't know what changes you need to make, that may be where we start. We all have a part of ourselves that knows what we need to do or how we need to be. Part of a therapist's job is to help you find that part of yourself and give it a voice. I have seen and heard it all in my time as a therapist. So, have no concerns about sharing information with me, whenever you feel comfortable. We will start from where you are. You are in the perfect place to take the next step on your way to a better life. Remember that the perfect human does not exist. We are all working to make progress, not to become perfect. I have worked in outpatient and inpatient mental health centers for years. I recently retired from teaching Social Work and Healthcare Management at a local 4-year college. I have also worked in Hospice and Home Health for many years. The type of sessions we have will be based on your needs. Every client is different. I look forward to hearing from you.

9 years offering treatment
I am licensed in Massachusetts with 9 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, & intimacy related issues. 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. My practice hours are 6pm - 9 pm Monday and Tuesday and Friday 8am-10am. I periodically will have additional hours throughout the week. I generally can respond at least once per morning and once per evening, sometimes more! If you are a first time couple seeking couples/marriage counseling, I recommend booking the latest appointment on any given day as the appointment tends to extend longer than the 30-45 minute time frame. I will also try to accommodate for the time period but this is on a case by case basis.

The most important thing about me as a therapist is my hope and belief in all of my clients. Recognizing that you're unhappy and want to make changes is one of the biggest challenges, and you're here! Let's talk more, and we can work together to move forward as partners in this process. Therapy with me is a safe place to unload all the things life throws your way, and I'll provide genuine and real communication about what's going on. We'll talk about practical ways to change those thoughts and your life. As a therapist, I like to remember and remind myself that my clients know their lives and themselves better than I do, and my role is to walk alongside you as you work through different challenges you're experiencing. I view my role as more of a navigator and you're in the driver's seat. During my time with older teens and adult individuals, my style is very person-centered, meaning I'll meet you where you are and not expect you to know things that youhaven't experienced, and we'll walk through it together, honestly and openly. I'm also a very solution-focused person, and try to bring this into my sessions as well, helping you find solutions for issues, so that it doesn't feel that you're running around in circles without making progress. I know your time is important, and you want to feel that you're getting something from every conversation we have. I'm not afraid to pull from many different counseling modalities in order to best serve your needs, and I love learning new ways to tackle problems. A strong therapeutic relationship is ultimately the most important part of therapy in order to progress through the therapeutic process. This means that you are comfortable sharing your life and thoughts with me and I understand where you are coming from and hear your concerns. One thing that might set me apart, is that I realize the importance of our whole experiences, meaning that we'll talk not only about what's going on in your mind, but also the other aspects of life (diet, exercise, sleep). A huge part of managing mental health, not only for you but for me as well, is having a good balance of these as well as coping skills to help manage depression, anxiety, mood and stress. My name is Meghan, and I'm a licensed mental health counselor working in the state of Florida. I graduated from the University of Central Florida (Go Knights!) in 2009 and have been working as a therapist ever since. I started my career working with children and families in the community setting and homes, worked in the school setting with at-risk teenagers, and most recently I see clients, aged 12-30, in my private practice. In my personal life, I like to spend time with my family and two dogs, Omar and Olive, read, bike and run, and visit the beach. I also love to travel, experience new things and meet new people.
