Meghan Pence
Looking for support takes courage, especially when life is challenging. Many of us are aching for connection, and many of us are longing to improve our relationships. I use Emotionally Focused Therapy to help individuals and couples examine relational patterns and strengthen bonds. I will provide a safe space for you to process your pain and heal your heart.
MY PHILOSOPHY AND APPROACH
I bring significant life experience to the therapeutic process.
I am especially qualified to work with adults who are facing difficult life transitions, grief, and loss. If you’re feeling anxious, depressed or overwhelmed, you are not alone. I hope you will reach out to me if you are struggling to find meaning, purpose, and joy. Together we can develop an action plan with your unique goals, hopes, and desires in mind.
As a Marriage and Family Therapist Associate, I have comprehensive training in individual, couples, and family counseling.
