About Megan

A partner in your
mental health journey

In Megan's Words

"Hi, I'm Megan. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I love helping people, especially when life feels heavy or overwhelming. My work isn't just about diagnoses or medication, but about understanding your story, what's getting in the way, and what helps you feel like yourself again. I take a down-to-earth, collaborative approach, and genuinely want you to feel heard and cared for. Together, we'll find a way forward that fits you and helps you reconnect with your best self."

My Approach

I combine medication management with psychotherapy in every session. My approach is collaborative, evidence-based, and patient-centered — creating a treatment plan that fits your unique story and goals. I believe care should be holistic, compassionate, and paced entirely at your comfort. Your goals are my goals.

What to Expect

Your first session will be an informal, relaxed conversation — all about you and how I can best support you. From there, we'll move forward with a thorough evaluation, regular follow-ups, and open communication so you always feel informed and comfortable with every aspect of your care.
