About Megan

The onset of chronic anxiety and an epilepsy diagnosis changed my demeanour, my life, and my identity. It led me to be curious about the brain from a young age. I realized that I could hold different parts of myself in each hand and still be authentic and present while also working to overcome stigma.

I began to learn about somatic work, and explore yoga more rigorously. I genuinely believe that working with counselling modalities that integrate the exploration of the body and the mind are life-changing. After getting my degree in counselling and becoming a yoga teacher, I opened my private practice in 2016. I work with populations who have complex trauma, relationship difficulties, people in periods of transition, epilepsy, and of course, individuals who experience anxiety.

It became clear that cognitive therapies were leaving gaps in people’s work and progress and so I enrolled in hundreds of hours of trauma trainings to get the bigger picture. Holy, was my mind blown! I couldn’t believe that this wasn’t something we are all taught to normalize the human experience. I teach my clients by providing psycho-education and tools in session and I see the tools being implemented as clients understand their process and why they are using different tools in the first place.

I have training at the Sensorimotor Institute to further my trauma-informed practice and approach to holistic mind-body work. I implement techniques that suit each individual with whom I work. I also have an EMDR certification and have done training in Neuroaffective Touch. I am currently exploring Somatic Experiencing with Peter Levine’s Somatic Experiencing International.

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor with the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors.
