Meghan is extremely attentive, responsive, respectful, and never judges- even when I slip up and make unquestionably poor choices. She talks things through with me in a relatable way without ever talking AT me or coming across as condescending. There’s a genuine care/trust. Her ability to be open & honest is something I truly cherish. She’s just… the best.

- LCPC, LMHC
I am currently licensed in both Illinois and Iowa with 21 years of professional work experience, working with individuals of all backgrounds, cultures, and socioeconomic statuses. During my career I have worked with individuals with vastly different needs allowing me to feel comfortable assisting each with the particular goals they have for themselves. I have experience in assisting clients with a variety of issues or concerns including mood and personality disorders, stress, anxiety (including panic), and depression, coping with addictions including both substance use as well as intimacy/sexual related, & trauma and abuse. I have experience working with several additional areas of concern people may have. I am a licensed clinical counselor as well as certified in advanced addictions work and have experience in school counseling and working with school systems and clients (to better assist working with schools and needs students and parents may have as well as with IEP and 504s). I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
