What should a new client know about working with you?

Megan is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who holds a Master of Social Work with specialization in mental health and substance use, received from the University of Texas at Arlington in 2019. She has experience working as a psychiatric inpatient therapist, psychoeducational group facilitator, and as an outpatient social worker at a local community mental health clinic. In 2020, Megan took a brief hiatus from the behavioral health field to serve as a Peace Corps education volunteer in the country of Myanmar, which further fueled her passion for working with people and exploring different cultures. Megan believes there is no ‘one size fits all’ approach to therapy, and works to utilize a variety of therapeutic approaches and tools to tailor each session to meet the unique needs of the individual. She enjoys using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), when working with clients. Megan is a LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist and advocates for diversity, inclusion and equality. When not in session, Megan enjoys travel, writing, finding the best street tacos, photography and trying new restaurants.
