About Meghan

Meghan Perez is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with ten years of clinical experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship concerns. Her tone is direct and compassionate, and she encourages clients to take small, meaningful steps toward feeling better.

Meghan earned a Bachelor of Social Work and a Master of Social Work with a specialty in mental health. She completed two years of supervised clinical mental health training before practicing as a clinician. She holds LCSW credentials in multiple states and brings a decade of experience to sessions.

Her style is straightforward and heartfelt. She listens first and follows the client's lead, while also offering a clear, guiding hand. She values respect and compassion and celebrates small wins along the way.

Clinically, Meghan draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques alongside narrative therapy and Motivational Interviewing. She also uses psychodynamic ideas when they fit the client's needs. She will explain approaches in plain terms and won’t hand someone a book as a substitute for real conversation.

Meghan offers a space where people can talk about body image, intimacy, addictions, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and a wide range of life changes. She asks clients to show up for themselves and promises honest, practical support as they work toward change.

Approaches that guide online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead. The therapist offers empathy and acceptance while helping people clarify what matters to them and decide next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It uses practical, short-term techniques to reduce anxiety, lift mood, and change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Meghan will work collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a person's goals and preferences. She blends techniques rather than sticking to one model and will explain why she suggests a given strategy during sessions.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy life. Many people find it simpler to check in from their usual routines without extra travel time.
