Getting to know Meridith Wirtz

What is Meridith’s approach to therapy? Meridith Wirtz is a licensed independent clinical social worker (LICSW) who takes a strengths-based and client centered approach to counseling.

Who does Meridith work with for therapy? Meridith works with individuals, with a particular focus on supporting school-aged youth and their families. She has a special interest in working with young people who are neurodivergent, including those with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and learning challenges, as well as those navigating anxiety. Her strengths include helping students and families address challenges, foster positive social interactions, and build independence. How do I choose the right therapist? Meridith says, “The “right” therapist is the one that feels most comfortable to you and is trained in the area where you are seeking support. This is not to say that therapy will always be “comfortable” or easy, but with the right therapist you feel mutual respect, a joint commitment to your wellbeing, and a space where you feel comfortable and willing to be vulnerable. The right therapist is the one that you trust will support you in clarifying and meeting your goals. This person will also work with you to recognize if progress becomes stuck and will collaborate on ways to become unstuck together or to find the next right support.
