Hi, I’m Meagan, and I’m glad you’re here! If you’ve made it this far, I imagine you’re at the end of your rope, reaching out for some help.

Recent college grad or young adult trying to navigate adulthood? So many feelings come alongside that journey - fear, inadequacy, excitement…the list goes on. If you’d like someone to walk alongside you as you process life changes and personal challenges, you’ve come to the right place!

I take creative approaches to counseling for those who desire it, including:

Sand Tray;
Walk and Talk; and
Expressive Arts.

My approach to counseling is strengths-based, meaning that I draw on the intrinsic assets already inside of you. I believe that you are the expert on your own life and provide a safe environment for you to explore it.

In my free time, I enjoy being outdoors, reading, riding my motorcycle, and spending time with family and friends.

I am passionate about my work and love what I do. I have seen the effects that therapy can have in peoples’ lives and I am always honored to be a part of that process.

I received my M.A. in Psychology from Seattle University, and I completed my internship at Seattle Counseling Service. I am a veteran of the United State Navy.

In most cases the collaborative meaning-making process undertaken by client and therapist is the change factor that leads to clarity, relief, freedom and flourishing.
