Meagan is an accredited counsellor, clinical psychotherapist, and supervisor who works with children, adolescents, adults, and families. She provides a warm, collaborative, and evidence-based approach to therapy, supporting clients to better understand themselves, navigate life's challenges, and create meaningful change.

Meagan supports individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional regulation difficulties, relationship challenges, life transitions, and neurodivergent presentations, including autism spectrum disorder. She is passionate about helping people make sense of the patterns that shape their thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and relationships, while building practical skills to support wellbeing and resilience.

Drawing on attachment theory, interpersonal neurobiology, relational therapies, and somatic approaches, Meagan works with both the mind and body to support lasting change. Her approach is grounded in the understanding that our experiences, relationships, and environments can influence how we respond to stress, connect with others, and move through the world. Therapy offers an opportunity to explore these patterns with curiosity and compassion, while developing new ways of relating to ourselves and others.

While working across the lifespan, Meagan has developed particular expertise in supporting children. She uses developmentally appropriate approaches, including play-based and creative therapies, to help young people express themselves, build emotional awareness, strengthen social connections, and develop confidence in managing life's challenges. She works with children experiencing anxiety, mood concerns, behavioural challenges, social difficulties, trauma, selective mutism, and neurodevelopmental differences.

Meagan believes parents and caregivers play an important role in a child's wellbeing and works closely with families to strengthen understanding, connection, and confidence. She provides practical strategies, psychoeducation, and collaborative support to help families navigate challenges and foster secure, connected relationships.

Meagan is dedicated to creating a therapeutic space where people of all ages feel safe, understood, and supported. Her goal is to help clients develop greater self-awareness, emotional flexibility, and confidence as they navigate life's challenges and move towards a more meaningful and connected life.

Meagan holds a Master’s degree in Dance Movement Therapy, a Bachelor’s degree in Social and Cultural Anthropology, and a Postgraduate Certificate in Play Therapy. She is a member of the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia and provides clinical supervision to psychologists and counsellors seeking to deepen their understanding of play-based and developmentally informed approaches.
