Divorce, trauma, and Narcissist Abuse counseling for women In The Carolina’s.
Honest and kind counseling to provide hope and tools for every part in you (yes, even those ones.)
Life doesn’t look or feel the way you wish it did.
This isn’t what you signed up for. Sure, you knew it was going to be hard. You didn’t think it would feel impossible, though. Between falling in love and dedicating your life to others, you got a lost in the mix. If we’re being honest, it can feel easier to stay lost. You’re bone deep tired. And fed up with feeling out of control of your own life. If you weren’t so worried about becoming your mother, you might even say you’re “sick and tired" of being “sick and tired,” but since you’re not her, let’s go with, “I’d like to end my subscription to adulting. 0/10.”

Being a professional is exhilarating. Getting to use your degree every day felt like a dream come true. Except now, you're thinking, "I don't know if these student loans were worth it." Your passion has been snuffed out, but your bills haven't been.

Listen, no one said being committed to another person for decades would be easy. But when did it become this? Bickering every night over dinner, then scrolling for hours, and going to bed with so much tension you could cut twin beds out of that queen? And we can forget sex, you would love to just have a meaningful conversation and laugh together again.

We're all agreed, this ain't working. it's not fun, it's not fulfilling, its not life giving, it's not even interesting. Of all the things you imagined for your life, boring and bummed out weren't what you pictured. But like, what are you supposed to do? You've bought the planners, watched the youtube tutorials, asked friends...Look, if you could have fixed this on your own, you would have.
Hey, I’m meg (She/her).
I believe you deserve so much more than a life of continual disappointment and numbing yourself just to deal with it.
I get it! At a certain point you look around and ask, “Is this really it? This is all there is?” When I tell you there are not enough vision boards in the world….
While there is beauty in simplicity, and peace in a life of contentment, that’s not the same as wishing you could pack it all up and run away. As a person who has crawled out of the pit of burn out, and has had to learn the hard way to communicate and set boundaries, let me promise you that you have more room to move than it currently feels like. And we can find even more possibilities together.
How I can help
I specialize in therapy that actually works.

Sometimes, it's not fixable. Sometimes, you have to acknowledge that this just isn't right anymore. It's devastating, but it happens. And if it's happening to you, we will work together to help you grieve and move through this moment in a way that aligns with your values. Learn more.

A lot of trauma therapy focuses on rewriting the messages that we learn about ourselves and the world. So often, those messages have one core belief - "I am not good enough to deserve safety." We work to restore your self worth, and help you see that you always deserved safety and respect, and learn how to give it to yourself. You'll find the ways to create healthy sustainable relationships for now and the future. Learn more.

So many issues in relationships stem from poor communication and poorly constructed boundaries. We will work together to get clear on what you want to say, and how you want to say it. I also specialize in treating narcissist abuse, so we will also talk about how to know when it's time to walk away. Learn more.
How it works
Life is stressful enough right now. Let me make this part as easy as possible.
Click this link to choose a day and time for a free, confidential consultation. During a consultation I will ask you about what brings you to therapy. We’ll talk a bit about what you can expect in sessions, but with my approach and my personality (spoiler alert, I’m awesome). All my sessions are completely virtual, and I use a video platform called Spruce for our calls. Generally I start with individuals once a week for about an hour, but this can change depending on your needs. Let’s get you started!
