About Megan

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California and a Perinatal Mental Health Certified Therapist (PMH-C) with Postpartum Support International. I specialize in providing mental health therapy services for the perinatal population including support for women and their partners struggling with infertility, perinatal loss, Perinatal Mood & Anxiety Disorders (PMAD's), difficulty adjusting to parenthood and relationship challenges as parents. I provide in-person sessions at my office in Pismo Beach, CA or Telehealth/online video sessions for California residents. I am also a mom of two young boys (ages 6 and 3) and have experienced the challenges that come during postpartum. I am passionate about providing education, support and coping tools to women during this vulnerable transition in life. We were not meant to go through our parenting journey alone!

Mental Health Therapist services

I offer mental health counseling for individuals and couples as well as local postpartum support groups on the Central Coast of California. I provide counseling services for California residents only (per my license requirements) either at my office in Pismo Beach, CA or Telehealth/online video sessions. I can provide a "superbill" after each session for clients to submit to their insurance provider for potential "out of network" reimbursement.
