Hi, I’m Meg.
I’m an intern with Mancos Valley Center for Trauma and Attachment. I know what it’s like to juggle high expectations, big life transitions, and the pressure to show up for everyone else while trying to stay grounded yourself. Before becoming a counselor, I spent nearly a decade practicing as a labor and employment attorney. That work showed me how stress, discrimination, and systemic barriers affect people’s well-being. It matters to have a space where you can set it all down and be fully seen.
Today, I live in the Four Corners region with my wife and our young son. We spend as much time as we can exploring the outdoors, connecting with community, and making a home rooted in resilience and joy. I love working with LGBTQ+ clients, young adults exploring career paths, people navigating layoffs or career changes, and those experiencing grief. I’m also passionate about supporting moms facing postpartum anxiety or depression, as well as women navigating perimenopause and menopause. At the same time, I welcome clients from all walks of life and value the opportunity to work alongside anyone seeking growth, healing, or clarity.
My style is collaborative and compassionate, grounded in the belief that meaningful change comes from connection and curiosity. In my work, I often draw on and integrate evidence-based approaches such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, attachment theory, parts work, trauma-informed care, and mindfulness with a focus on building genuine therapeutic relationships. I’m currently completing my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at New Mexico Highlands University and bring both professional experience and lived perspective to my work with clients.
