Headshot of Meg Stephens

Hi, I'm Meg!

Hi, I’m Meg Stephens (LMHC, ATR, CRRTS), a licensed mental health counselor, registered art therapist, and certified Rapid Resolution Therapy® specialist. I bring a creative, integrative, and direct approach to therapy, helping clients gain clarity, find relief, and move forward with confidence. With a unique blend of clinical training and creative tools, I specialize in working with children, adolescents, young adults, and parents. Whether we’re processing trauma, navigating big life transitions, or working through behavioral and emotional challenges, I’m passionate about helping people uncover the root of what’s keeping them stuck—often revealing that the problem they thought they were facing isn’t actually the problem at all. This shift in perspective can be powerful, and it allows us to create lasting change in less time than many expect. My clients often describe me as straightforward, compassionate, and action-focused. I create a space that’s supportive and solution-oriented, where people feel safe to be themselves and challenged enough to grow. After our sessions, my intention is for clients to walk away feeling empowered, motivated, and equipped to face life’s challenges with a renewed sense of purpose and clarity. In addition to my clinical work, I have extensive experience supporting children and teens. I use art therapy, play-based techniques, and communication strategies that speak directly to their developmental needs while also engaging caregivers in the process. My work with teens emphasizes mutual respect which allows for honest and transformational conversations. While therapy with me is never one-size-fits-all, it’s always grounded in a deep respect for each individual’s unique story, strengths, and goals. I also want to share that my Christian faith is the foundation for how I view the world and my purpose in it. That said, I work with clients from all backgrounds and belief systems. I do not incorporate spirituality into the therapy process unless it is something my client desires. I believe that healing, insight, and transformation can happen regardless of religious orientation—and I honor each person’s journey with care and respect. Outside the therapy room, I enjoy making art, reading, playing ultimate frisbee, and spending time outdoors with my family. These things keep me grounded, creative, and connected—and they help me show up fully present for the people I work with. I currently offer virtual sessions. If you’re looking for a therapist who is creative, real, and ready to help you make meaningful progress, I’d love to connect and see if we’re a good fit.

Services

What I Offer

Having trouble picking one? I'm here to help, schedule a consultation and let's figure it out together.

Rapid Resolution Therapy®

Session length: 90 minutes Price per session: $225 Who would most likely benefit? I find RRT to most specifically benefit those that feel they have a good idea of what they would like to do with their time, yet feel that some way of thinking, feeling, or acting seems to be causing some stuckness. This can be great for those that have tried traditional therapy or other healing modalities and maybe have a good “understanding” of what has been going on, but just haven’t yet had that deeper shift they are looking for. Stucknesses may include things such as trauma, fear, anger, shame, guilt, limiting beliefs, negative self perception, etc. ​ What does it entail?  · Approach to clearing stuckness and increasing clarity, joy, and creativity.  · Sharing a unique philosophical perspective of how your mind is constructed and how that applies to the turmoil experienced.  · Specific language patterns, stories, and metaphors intended to engage the subconscious in a way that causes shifts naturally and immediately.   How many sessions can I expect? 1-3 typically (spaced about a week apart)

Individual Counseling*

Session length: 60 minutes  Price per session: $150 Who would most likely benefit? This option might be most valuable to people who are experiencing ongoing, real-time challenges and would appreciate someone who’s clear and objective to help them evaluate their options and effectively problem solve. This may also look like building skills for being in satisfying relationships, finding support for parenting, or a child/teenager figuring out how to do life a little easier. ​ What does it entail? · Problem solving; guidance with assessing and evaluating current opportunities and creating concrete plans of action · Support and constructive feedback as you put those plans into action; adjustments to the plan as needed · Skill building; learn how to engage in relationships or how to create systems that accomplish your goals and work toward your intentions (setting boundaries, emotion regulation, behavior management, etc)   How many sessions can I expect?​ 6-12 sessions typically, but this is truly unique for each individual. Expect sessions to be spaced about 1 to 2 weeks apart. * If you reside outside of Florida, then this would be considered life coaching, as the LMHC credential only covers counseling within the state. Life coaching does not include services such as providing a mental health diagnosis and treatment plan, and is not an ethical approach for more severe issues such as suicidal ideation, self harm, or other safety related concerns.

Art
Therapy

Session length: 60 minutes​ Price per session: $150 Who would most likely benefit? ​Art therapy can truly be for anyone and everyone. It is a great fit for kids, but is not limited to children and teens. It can be incorporated into life coaching and counseling as the opportunity arises, but I personally believe that the people who most benefit from my style of art therapy would relate to the following: · Wanting to creatively explore a new idea or intention in their life · Wanting to use or learn how to use creative materials and processes to cope with life’s challenges · Interested in supplementing other mental health/self improvement efforts   What does it entail? · Setting intention for session(s) · Exploring material familiarity and interest · Engaging in creative processes, and use the process and product to develop meaning, insight, and satisfaction · Possibly learning new artistic skills along the way   How many sessions can I expect? As many as you want! Expression and creative exploration is always valuable!
