About Meagan

She holds a Master of Social Work from the University of Southern California and a BS in Human Resources Management from the University of Phoenix. Meagan has worked in inpatient psychiatric and substance abuse settings, school districts, medical social work, and home health where she supported people with complex needs.
Meagan helps people who are managing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma and abuse, ADHD, grief, relationship concerns, and career strain. She also addresses intimacy-related issues, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes. Additional focuses include attachment and abandonment concerns, caregiving stress, chronic illness, body image, and communication or control issues.
Her clinical approach includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) along with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, client-centered techniques, and mindfulness practices. In sessions she uses structured, practical tools to notice thought patterns and test new behaviors. She blends acceptance and values-based work with skills training when that fits a person’s goals.
Meagan’s background as a medical and psychiatric social worker informs a problem-solving style. She draws on case management experience when coordinating resources or planning next steps. Sessions move at a steady, goal-focused pace with attention to what is useful between meetings.
People who choose Meagan can expect clear explanations of methods and short, doable exercises to try between sessions. She asks about daily routines, stressors, and supports, then shapes strategies that make sense in everyday life.
How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions
Meagan uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test different reactions. CBT often includes practical exercises and homework to change patterns that keep problems going and can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and some stress-related concerns.She also integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying values and taking actions that matter even when feelings are difficult. Attachment-Based Therapy appears in her work when relationship patterns and attachment history are relevant to current struggles.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. Meagan will talk with a person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to emphasize and adjust the plan as progress is measured.
