Getting to know Meaghan Confer

I tailor my trauma-informed and strength-based approach to empower clients on their unique path to thriving. I have always been passionate about supporting trauma survivors, which led me to focus the beginning of my career on crisis intervention and counseling survivors of domestic violence. This experience allowed me to hone my expertise in trauma-informed care, which I continue to use in my work with a broader population of clients. My work is exploratory and skill-focused, using solution-focused, emotion-focused, psychodynamic, dialectical-behavioral, and cognitive-behavioral therapeutic principles. I apply these techniques to help clients whose goals include: building self-esteem, healthy relationships, coping with anxiety, depression, & PTSD, becoming more attuned to their emotions, and navigating life transitions. In a session together, clients can expect me to be fully authentic, collaborative, and ready to explore with them! My sessions are conversational and focused on guiding clients to learn more about themselves and build the skills they need to thrive. Skills we focus on may include: building self-compassion, identifying your strengths, developing healthy coping skills, assertive communication skills, and challenging unhelpful thoughts. I believe healing and growth come from a balance of support and challenge. Therefore, I support clients unconditionally and challenge them to look deeper within themselves to explore the roots of their ongoing struggles and past difficulties. Ultimately, I work with each client to create a safe and affirming space where they can be their most authentic self. I'm a therapist with Octave and Evernorth Behavioral Care Group. Octave is a mental health practice providing high-quality care covered by multiple insurances. Evernorth Behavioral Care Group is a behavioral health provider group in-network with Cigna Healthcare and Evernorth Behavioral Health.
