About Maegan

Maegan lives in Western North Carolina with her wife, dog, and two cats. She is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate and Licensed Recreational Therapist. She has had the privilege of working with individuals across the lifespan—ages 4 to 104—in settings such as inpatient psychiatry, emergency departments, and intensive outpatient programs. She fell in love with this work immediately upon starting her undergraduate practicum at a state psychiatric hospital. Maegan has been practicing recreational therapy since 2018 and counseling since 2025. She also served on the North Carolina Recreational Therapy Association Board of Directors as President from 2020-2022.

Maegan provides both counseling and recreational therapy services, rooted in a systemic framework—because context, culture, and lived experience shape how we heal. She incorporates skills and approaches from DBT, ACT, Narrative Therapy, and experiential practices. Her style is flexible and deeply collaborative. She believes in meeting each person where they are, drawing from both her education and lived experiences as a queer, neurodivergent woman.

Maegan offers morning appointments only (telehealth, ages 8+) and invites anyone who thinks they might be a good fit to reach out for a free 15-minute consultation.
