My Story & How I Practice

Hi, I’m Megan (she/her), a neurodivergent Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor. I grew up in the DC area and spent most of my life as an athlete. Just before college, I was in a serious accident that changed the way I moved through the world — and the way I dealt with life’s challenges. Managing chronic pain and illness became part of my story, and those experiences continue to shape how I show up as a therapist: grounded, honest, and deeply human.

I attended the University of Utah where I received dual bachelor’s in Health Education & Promotion and Psychology. Shortly following I received post bachelorette certificates in Human Factors and Gerontology. I attended Westminster University (formerly Westminster College) where I received my Masters in Mental Health Counseling. Later I received a certificate in Marriage & Family Counseling from University of Phoenix and a certificate in Supervision from the University of North Carolina- Greensboro.

My Clinical Focus

I specialize in working with neurodivergent adults who feel misunderstood, stuck, or disconnected—often navigating questions of identity, anxiety, or trauma. As a neurodivergent clinician, I know what it’s like to mask, to feel “too much” or “not enough,” or to move through the world without a clear place to land. Therapy with me is about unlearning those messages and reconnecting with who you really are.

My work draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), client-centered care, and psychodynamic principles, often weaving in parts work from Internal Family Systems (IFS). Together, we explore patterns with curiosity, make room for your lived experience, and build practices that help you feel more grounded, whole, and aligned with your values.

I affirm a wide range of identities, experiences, and belief systems—secular, spiritual, or nontraditional. I’m a proud LGBTQIA2+ ally and committed to holding a space that is inclusive, collaborative, and shaped by your voice and needs.

If this kind of care resonates with you, I’d be honored to connect.


Education & Training

I hold a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling from Westminster University (formerly Westminster College), completed in 2016.

Prior to that, I earned dual Bachelor of Science degrees from the University of Utah — one in Psychology (2012) and another in Health Promotion & Education (2013), along with a Post-Bachelor Certificate in Human Factors.

In 2020, I completed a Supervision Certification through the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, with a focus on supporting emerging clinicians in reflective, collaborative supervision spaces.
