Getting to know Megan Aguirre

Hi there, I'm Megan! My name is Megan Aguirre, and I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Denver. I chose this discipline intentionally and believe in the unique lens that social work brings to psychotherapy. What is special about working with an LCSW is the holistic "human in environment" perspective that accounts for the systems and circumstances impacting you. This promotes acceptance and non-judgment by recognizing factors outside our control that influence us. My approach You will find my style fluid and conversational. My therapeutic approach is integrative. I draw from various evidence-based techniques and tailor my approach to each client’s unique needs. I prioritize creating a warm, supportive environment that promotes safety and acceptance. Top modalities include DBT, CBT, MBCT, SFBT, insight therapy, strengths-based, person-centered, solution-focused, and social-emotional psychoeducation. My focus Who I work with: Those seeking healing, change, symptom relief, and support prioritizing wellness. People navigating the transition of fully coming into adulthood and themselves in their 20s and 30s. People seeking direction and renewed purpose. People questioning and navigating relationship challenges. People cultivating and seeking acceptance for their personal culture and identity. Conditions I work with most often include anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem, relationships, identity exploration, navigating change, and feeling lost. My communication style Therapy is most productive when safety, acceptance, and trust are cultivated and maintained. I invest deeply in building this environment and therapeutic relationship. My communication style is fluid and conversational. Clients often say sessions feel like talking with a trusted confidant. I rely heavily on a strengths-based perspective.
