Megan Oravetz, LPC, LMFT, Owner/Director
Megan has been working in the mental health field since 2006. Megan’s approach to therapy could best be described as relationship-oriented, “systemic” (or socially-embedded), goal-oriented, compassionate, and holistic. As a relationship-oriented therapist, Megan enjoys helping couples who are experiencing significant distress in their relationship – with communication, intimacy issues, and parenting. She is also passionate about helping women who struggle in their interpersonal relationships and with emotion regulation/anger.
Additionally, Megan often works with youth/teens who are struggling to find "common ground" within their family. She enjoys including the "whole family" in therapy where possible and helpful as systems change is often integral to individual change.
Megan also has experience working with Dialectical Behavioral Therapy skills for individuals who often experience emotional dysregulation and relationship conflict.
Interacting with children is not only an area of expertise but also a joy - and she often uses play therapy and emotion regulation/skill building in her sessions with kids.
Megan is a native of Virginia and graduated from the University of Virginia and later received her Master’s from Regent University. Megan has conducted research and interventions for children with emotional and attention difficulties (such as ADHD and anxiety) at U.Va. and the Child Study Center of Virginia Tech. She also served as a victim advocate and counselor for survivors of sexual abuse and trafficking at Restored Hope of Dallas Texas. Most recently, she worked for two years serving military families and expats near a U.S. Army base in Pyeongtaek, South Korea. She is currently a member of the American Psychological Association and the ACA.
Megan also has three active boys and a GSP, and together they enjoy hiking, camping, and exploring the outdoors.
