Getting to know Megan Lawrence-Ferreira

Hi there, I'm Megan! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with a Master's in Counseling Psychology from the University of San Francisco. I believe in a collaborative and strength-based approach to psychotherapy. My approach I utilize an integrative approach to psychotherapy, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), humanistic principles, and strength-based techniques. My focus I typically work with adults. My focus areas of practice are Anxiety Disorders, Depressive Disorders, Trauma, Life Transitions, parenting, and burnout. My communication style I aspire to develop and maintain a collaborative therapeutic relationship established through active listening, trust, and safety. My journey to mental healthcare I became a therapist because I believe in the practice of psychotherapy as a wonderful tool to help us all tap into our potential, resolve conflicts, and live meaningful lives. My goals for you My approach to goal setting is based on the individual. I will work collaboratively with you to develop therapeutic goals based on your current functioning, needs, wants, and desires. My first session with you During the first session, I hope we will be able to learn more about one another, ask questions, and begin conversations surrounding therapeutic goal development.
