Sometimes anxiety looks like overthinking every conversation, feeling exhausted from trying to hold everything together, or knowing something needs to change but not knowing where to start. Sometimes depression means going through the motions while feeling disconnected from yourself. And sometimes trauma, substance use, or longstanding patterns can leave you feeling stuck in cycles you don’t know how to break.
Hi, I’m Meghan. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and Clinical Substance Abuse Counselor at Ellie, and I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, substance use, trauma, self-esteem, mood and personality disorders, and other complex mental health concerns. I’ve spent 10 years in the mental health field, and I believe therapy should be a place where you feel safe to be honest, understood without judgment, and supported in making meaningful change.
When we work together, we’ll talk about what’s happening in your life, notice patterns, and build practical tools that actually fit your day-to-day life. Sometimes that means processing difficult experiences, sometimes it means learning skills to manage intense emotions, and sometimes it means having an honest conversation about something you’ve been avoiding. I’ll meet you where you are and work alongside you rather than telling you where you need to be.
I draw from CBT, DBT, trauma-focused approaches, and EMDR, tailoring treatment to your experiences and goals. You don’t have to know exactly what’s wrong or have a plan before you come in. We can figure that out together.
Outside of work, I enjoy traveling around Wisconsin with my husband and our kids, finding new places to explore. I bring that same curiosity and openness into my work with clients.
You don’t have to navigate everything alone. We can start wherever you are.
