“Safety is not the absence of threat.

It is the presence of connection.”

Dr. Gabor Mate

Megan brings a down to earth presence that naturally builds a connection with her clients. She understands that relationship is key and is willing to reinforce her connection in order to earn trust. It is only then that she feels the process of healing can begin.

Since 2015, Megan has been working as a clinical mental health counselor. With a nursing background, she approaches therapy by caring for the whole person, emphasizing connection, collaboration, and curiosity. As a MITT Works Coach, Megan often uses M.I.T.T. Works Boxing in therapy sessions, using a creative and engaging experience to therapy that creates lasting change. Megan is co-creator/co-founder of GYM Body & Spirit.
