You may be the person everyone depends on. You keep things moving, solve the problems, and seem fine from the outside.

Inside, you may feel anxious, exhausted, or stuck in patterns you understand but cannot seem to change.

I’m Meghan, a trauma therapist offering virtual therapy and EMDR to adults across South Carolina.

I help clients work through trauma, chronic stress, burnout, and the lasting effects of difficult childhood or relationship experiences.
