Getting to know Dr. Megan Cherry

As your therapist, I will be compassionate and authentic. I will invite you into a healing space, nudging as needed, but never pushing beyond where you are ready. Together, we will identify steps to reach your goals. I will help you heal from pain, develop relationships that affirm you, cultivate hope, and empower you to become a more self-compassionate and authentic you. ?I'm not enough? is a fear I've wrestled with, and a theme I constantly hear from clients who have experienced trauma, are battling identity-based -isms, are wrestling with the complex emotions of being a teenager, and/or are coping with the stress of parenting. I strive to help my clients process hurts and pain and cultivate self-compassion in their lives, bringing about healing, freedom to live authentically, and hope. I hold a PhD in Psychology from Louisiana Tech University, which informs my approach and commitment to supporting your journey toward healing and growth.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Some of the questions we may explore are: “What if you matter simply because you exist? What if past hurt/betrayal doesn’t define you? What if you allow yourself to be human - flawed and powerful - instead of Wonder Woman or Superman?” Sessions will include space to process emotions and past and present experiences, explore underlying reasons for your current patterns and difficulties, and practical tools to help you create the life you want to live.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
