Therapy for People Grappling with Anxiety and Obsessive Overthinking, or PTSD & Trauma, and Grieving Parents in Oklahoma and Vermont

Helping people break free from cycles of self-doubt, trauma, anxiety and fear through EMDR, parts work, body work, and nervous system regulation, so that they can build lives that are filled with gratitude, grit and joy.

You’re Not Just Looking for Relief—You’re Longing for Wholeness

"The purpose of psychotherapy is to set people free."
-Rollo May

How Can Therapy Set You Free?

You Can Harness Your Inner Strength to Rise Above Anxiety, Overwhelming Grief, Doubt, and the Weight of Past Pain.

Together, we’ll explore these painful experiences to understand and gently release their hold on you.

 

Using EMDR, narrative therapy, somatic practices, and parts work, we’ll work through the hurt and confusion with purpose. We will find you the freedom, healing and a life you really want.

This isn’t about endless talking—it’s about finding the freedom to embrace who you are, finally forgive yourself for the decisions you've made, move forward with confidence, and feel seen, heard and understood for who you are, at your core.

Hi, I'm Megan Secrest.   

I'm an LCSW located in Oklahoma who provides counseling to people in Oklahoma and Vermont. 

I know it can be hard to find the right fit for your therapist, so I want you get a good feel about where my specialties lie. You deserve a therapist who understands exactly what you are bringing into the therapy room, how tender you feel reaching out for help for these exact problems, and also one that can effectively treat those problems so you can feel better, sooner!

Here’s Who I Help Best:

  • Highly Sensitive People, who feel emotions deeply, are overstimulated by noise, lights, etc., and often feel overwhelmed by the world around them.

  • Those with anxiety that isn’t general—it’s specific, sharp, and painful, the kind that feels shameful even to think about, let alone share.

  • People who are just now realizing that their emotionally cold, affectionless childhood wasn’t normal—and in fact, was deeply traumatic.

  • Individuals who’ve experienced major weight loss, whether through GLP-1 medications or bariatric surgery, and are now navigating life in a body that feels unfamiliar—even if it’s now more socially “acceptable.”

  • Late-diagnosed or self-suspected ADHDers and Autistic folks trying to make sense of their brains and lives, often after years of feeling misunderstood.

  • Bereaved parents, grieving the death of a child or pregnancy loss​, and wondering how to move through the most painful experience they've ever had.

You don’t have to stay stuck.


Whether you're navigating big transitions or just craving more peace in your everyday life, therapy can help. Book your free consultation today—because the life you want is possible.
