Hi, I’m Meagan Palmer, Licensed Professional Counselor. My goal is to create a therapeutic experience that feels supportive, collaborative, and genuinely helpful.
Meagan Palmer, LPC
Licensed Professional Counselor (she, her)
- Work best with: Children, Adults, Veterans, LGBTQ+ Community
- Manage Medications: Provides therapy and collaborates closely with our psychiatry team for medication management, available through internal referral if needed.
Self Scheduling
I primarily draw from Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR and Adlerian Therapy, integrating skills from these approaches to explore how past experiences influence present beliefs and behaviors. My approach is collaborative, with sessions focusing on exploring and understanding your history, determining goals for therapy, and helping guide you on the path to making lasting changes.
Patients can expect a calm and warm environment, where they can feel safe to share at their own pace, focus on healing, and feel empowered on their journey. I try to put patients at ease by validating their experiences and feelings, and focusing on trust and open communication.
Patients have found the skills discussed and the insight gained in sessions to be helpful, leading them to effectively regulate emotions and communicate in healthy ways. Patients have also shared they feel genuinely seen and understood in our work together. I prioritize creating a space that feels safe, supportive, non-judgmental, and that fosters growth.
