“When you live in the present moment, full of curiosity, appreciation, and love for what is, you are truly living your best life.”
- Panache Desai
Hi, my name is Meg.
I’m here for you when you’re ready to connect.
My Style & Approach
I value present-moment connection, collaboration, and curiosity. I offer a safe, compassionate space for those seeking therapy to embrace mindful self-awareness, reflection, and acceptance of self. My goal is to support clients in identifying the unhelpful stories that keep them stuck and work to shift perspectives so they can experience new states of being and lean into more preferred stories that highlight their strengths, resources, and genuine intentions. From anxious to calm, afraid to brave, confused to clear, and melancholy to hopeful, I can truly support and inspire you toward progress and healing.
As a therapist, I am drawn to the personal and collective growth that can arise from a safe therapeutic relationship and appreciate the need for authenticity, trust, and mutual understanding. I strive to meet clients where they are at, adapting my approach to suit their unique needs, goals and preferences.
My style is eclectic and most frequently draws on the following therapeutic modalities:
Narrative Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Solution Focused Therapy
Existential Therapy

A therapist's sense of self is their most valuable tool and I am committed to my personal development. I enjoy reading and listening to podcasts, exercising, and being outside in Mother Nature. My self-care practices also include spending time with loved ones, motorcycle rides, expressing creativity through macrame, spiritual connection, and listening to vinyl records.
