I love animals. I love coffee. I firmly believe Schitt’s Creek is a coping mechanism. I also have an unconditional belief in the clients that I see. I believe that if you want change in your life, you have the power to change. If you want to grow into a better version, you’re in control of that. I want all of my clients to see that they are worthy of love and connection. I want my clients to learn the difference between safety and danger, and how to limit the story we tell ourselves when we believe we are in danger. I find opportunities to practice vulnerability, expand tolerance for discomfort, and connect the mind and body. I’m right there doing the work with you (and sometimes, so are my cats.)
Meet the Therapist & CEO of Catalyst
Hi! I'm Megan.
2 of 2
You’ll likely find me with a cup of coffee in my hand. Sometimes I wear gym clothes to session - because I believe working out is an important part of taking care of ourselves, and sometimes I have to run out the door to get myself there.
I show up to session as the most authentic version of myself. Because you deserve that. I do my best therapist work when I’m able to be true to who I am. I’m fully human - who makes mistakes and goes through shit, and has to process and do the work - just like you. I’m a therapist in therapy and I believe it is crucial for you have a space that you feel free to be (or find) your authentic self, too.
AUTHENTICITY
I Value..
-CR: Client since 2023
"I’ve been working with Megan since 2023. Having been through a lot of therapy over the years, I didn’t expect miracles. Therapy is therapy. I believe Megan has made a huge difference, however.. She pushes me to confront the emotions that make me uncomfortable. That discomfort has resulted in a lot of personal growth. Staying in therapy for 2 years is a lifetime achievement."
Here's What Our Clients say...
KIND WORDS FROM OUR CLIENTS
"Megan really saved my life when we first started working together I was a mental and physical mess. At first, we met twice a week and now after two years I only see her monthly. Megan did not tell me what to do. She taught me how to trust myself and learn skills to empower myself. Megan kept me honest and made sure I was doing the work. Thank you Megan!"
