About Megan
I hold space for people to untangle and integrate life experiences and tune into our bodies for another source of wisdom. I’ll support you to deepen your awareness, build capacity to be with the ebbs and flows of life and move towards your goals and passions.
Mindfulness has brought healing and choice to my life
So much of myself has been unknown to me throughout my life. I sometimes didn’t understand my own reactions. It was only through my own personal counseling and years of formal training that I began to understand my inner landscape.
I see healing as a continual journey, but some changes I’ve noticed in myself through studying and practicing somatics are:
- an expanded capacity to hold multiplicity,
- a conscious space between an event and my reaction,
- an appreciation for things that bring me pleasure,
- and the ability to sit with discomfort.
All of these have allowed me to create a lot more choice in my life. Choices that align myself with my values, befriend my different parts, and create more authentic connections.
My counseling is informed by years of study
My studies include:
- Certificate Program in Mindfulness & Psychotherapy (affiliated with the Harvard Medical School Department of Psychiatry)
- B.A in Psychology and Anthropology
- Somatic Attachment Therapy Certificate
- Focusing and Inner Relationship Focusing
- Integrative Somatic Trauma Therapy Certificate Program
- Intentional Peer Support Certification
- 200 YTT (in process)
- Living a Soulful Life with Francis Weller
Some of my teachers who inspire me include:
- Francis Weller
- Lama Rod Owens
- Christopher Germer
- Deb Dana
- Bessel van der Kolk
- Maureen Gallagher
- Kai Cheng Thom
- Arielle Schwartz
- Manuela Mische-Reeds
- Ron Siegel
- Lizabeth Roemer
I am particularly drawn towards exploring topics around grief, belonging, parts work and mindfulness.
“Together we were able to consistently move me towards resolution of some very old wounds as well as manage new life situations as they arose.”
