Hi, I’m Megan

I’m the human behind Unlocked Wellness.

I believe that getting to know yourself can be one of the most meaningful parts of therapy. So often, we move through life doing what we’ve learned to do to get by; to keep the peace, keep others happy, avoid conflict, stay in control, put others first, or hold everything together. We develop ways of coping and protecting ourselves that may have once helped us feel safe, connected, or in control, often without realizing we’re doing it.

Over time, though, these patterns can leave us feeling stuck. You might find yourself people-pleasing even when you’re exhausted, struggling to set boundaries, shutting down during conflict, overthinking your relationships, or having a hard time knowing what you actually need or want. You may wonder, Why do I keep doing this? Why does this affect me so much? Why is it so hard to respond differently?

I’m interested in what happens underneath those patterns. What shaped the way you learned to relate to yourself and others? What are different parts of you trying to protect you from? What happens in your body and nervous system when something feels familiar, overwhelming, or difficult?

Therapy can give us space to slow these patterns down and get curious about them, not to judge or “fix” you, but to understand yourself with more compassion. From there, we can begin to create more choice in how you respond, connect, and move through the world.

You don’t have to come to therapy with everything figured out. You might simply feel stuck, disconnected, or curious about yourself and want to understand what’s going on beneath the surface. Wherever you’re starting from, we can explore it together.

How I Work

My approach is warm, collaborative, and curious. I integrate Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic therapy, inner-child work, attachment-based, and trauma-informed approaches.

Together, we can explore the experiences that have shaped you and the ways they may still show up in your thoughts, emotions, body, nervous system, sense of self, and relationships. We might notice patterns around people-pleasing, boundaries, self-worth, conflict, or feeling disconnected from what you actually need and want.

Rather than trying to “fix” parts of yourself that feel difficult, we’ll get curious about them. Understanding where your patterns come from can create more compassion, self-trust, and choice in how you move forward.
