Meaghan’s Therapeutic Process
The good news is that with therapy, there is hope and an opportunity to learn and incorporate healthy coping skills. Together, we will identify and work through the challenges that are standing in your way from feeling and becoming your best self.
I am a solution-focused therapist who uses a blend of evidence-based practices to bring about change and healing to my clients. Two of my favorite therapies are (CBT) Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and (DBT) Dialectical Behavior Therapy.
The definition of (EVP) Evidence-Based Practices, means the therapy has been systematically researched and proven to work. This is very effective for a broad range of psychological issues such as depression and anxiety. This works for adults as well as adolescents and young adults struggling with anxiety, thinking errors and transition difficulties.
I am certified as an EMDR trauma therapist, (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), this is also an evidenced-based protocol for trauma and blocking belief systems. This credential is highly regulated and requires hundreds of client hours to attain and maintain certified status. You may go to EMDRIA.ORG for further information.
I use a psycho-educational style with my clients to promote understanding and self-acceptance. I use psychodynamics to help identify which psychological forces are underlying my client’s behaviors, feelings, and emotions and how they may relate to early childhood experiences.
By using a system and attachment theory approach I am able to address the family of origin of each client and their relationships with primary attachment figures (mother/father/caregiver) and how those relationship blocks are showing up in the present day.
