More about Meg

  • 12 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMHC

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor, Nationally Certified Clinical Mental Health Counselor in Massachusetts with over 15 years of experience in the counseling and education fields including positions as a special educator, secondary school adjustment counselor, emergency department crisis clinician, and a graduate online instructor. I have been working as a therapist in private practice for over 10 years specializing in adolescent and adult mental/emotional health, ADHD, anxiety, depression, healthy living, family/behavior management strategies, parenting, and educational issues.

I use an integrative, intuitive, and interactive approach to counseling to create a non-judgmental and relaxed environment. I believe that healing begins with feeling heard and understood. I tailor my therapeutic approach to meet individual needs and empower clients with a focus on emotional and neurobiological exploration.

Seeking support demonstrates self-awareness and readiness for growth. I aspire to assist you in navigating a path towards self-discovery.

I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I really like and appreciate the questions I get from Meg. She helps me to look at things differently. I’ve only had a few sessions with her so far but I’ve already grown so much thanks to her help.

Reviewed April 2022

Meg Kennedy is fantastic. She knows what she is talking about, gives room for the patient to speak their mind and always offers a relevant point of view of the topic on hand. She is engaged, easy to talk to and has a great personality. In a short time, she has helped me through conflicts that have taken me months to think through on my own time.
