I’m a licensed psychologist, but more than that, I’m someone who genuinely cares about the human experience—yours, mine, all of it. My work isn’t about fixing you (because you’re not broken). It’s about helping you understand yourself in a way that makes life feel more manageable, less overwhelming, and, dare I say, even fulfilling.
I take a direct but compassionate approach. I’ll challenge you when needed, support you always, and guide you toward trusting yourself more deeply. Therapy with me isn’t just about talking—it’s about discovery, change, and learning how to navigate life in a way that actually works for you.
I believe therapy should be a balance of depth, honesty, and real connection.
Hi, I'm Dr. Megan Rhoads
I’m a licensed psychologist, but more than that, I’m someone who deeply understands what it means to struggle, to question, and to rebuild. My work isn’t about fixing you (because you’re not broken). It’s about helping you understand yourself in a way that makes life feel more manageable, less overwhelming, and, dare I say, even fulfilling.
My own journey has shaped the way I approach therapy.
I’ve faced burnout, lived with depression and grief, and battled the persistent feeling of not being good enough.
I believe therapy should be a balance of depth, honesty, and real connection.
Hi, I'm Dr. Megan Rhoads
At one point, I even stepped away from everything and moved to Mexico, searching for clarity and a new way forward. What I learned is that healing isn’t about perfection—it’s about self-trust, self-compassion, and being willing to explore the parts of yourself that feel the hardest to face.

If you’re feeling stuck, know that I’ve been there too—and there is a way through.
It’s like turning over rocks—not always knowing what you’ll find. That can feel uncertain, even a little scary. But you don’t have to do it alone. I believe we all grow up as little learning machines, figuring out how to emotionally (and sometimes physically) survive our environment. We develop coping strategies that serve us well as children but don’t always work for us as adults. With me, you’ll learn practical ways to work with your own “inner child” (and the other four parts of self), helping you navigate both your inner world and the challenges of daily life. As we walk this path together, I’ll help you discover your own power and wisdom to face whatever lies beneath the stones.

Qualifications
Licensed Psychologist (PsyD) – Clinical Psychology
Certified Hypnotherapist specializing in Heart-Centered Hypnotherapy for deep emotional healing
Extensive experience working with high-achievers navigating anxiety, self-criticism, grief, and major life transitions
Advanced training in Re-Decision Therapy—helping clients break free from limiting beliefs and emotional patterns
Expertise in somatic work, integrating mind-body techniques for lasting transformation
Committed to helping my clients create real, lasting change
The work we do together isn’t just about talking—it’s about true transformation. Many of my clients have tried traditional talk therapy, only to find that insight alone wasn’t enough to create lasting change. My approach goes deeper, helping you uncover the unconscious patterns that keep you stuck and guiding you toward a new way of being. Through psychotherapy, Re-Decision Therapy and Heart-Centered Hypnotherapy, we’ll access the root of your struggles and work to rewire the emotional beliefs that no longer serve you. You’ll gain the tools to shift old patterns, reconnect with your inner self, and move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and emotional freedom. Therapy with me isn’t about managing symptoms—it’s about real, lasting change.
Resources
In our sessions together, we'll create a comfortable and supportive environment where you can explore and connect with your inner strengths. We'll identify personal resources like your favorite relaxing place, your inner Wise Adult, and, if it resonates with you, your spiritual connection. We'll also develop practical tools, such as an emotional "dimmer switch," to help you manage intense feelings.
These resources aren't just for our time together; they're meant to empower you in your daily life. By integrating these tools into your routine, you'll build resilience and confidence, enhancing your journey toward personal growth and transformation.
Expression
In our sessions, we'll work together to explore and address the challenges you're facing by gently uncovering and connecting with any deeply held emotions related to these issues.
We'll use a variety of techniques that encourage both verbal expression and physical movement, helping to release these emotions and the associated energy from your body and mind. This holistic approach aims to foster healing and promote a sense of balance and well-being in your daily life.

Regression
In our work together, we'll gently explore the deeper origins of the emotions and patterns that may be holding you back. By guiding you to the root of these experiences, we can uncover when and how these beliefs first took hold. This process can bring up strong emotions, as it reconnects you with earlier versions of yourself that shaped your current ways of thinking and reacting.
Through proven techniques, we'll help you release these stored emotions in a way that feels safe and transformative. This release can be deeply freeing, allowing you to move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and emotional resilience.

Healing
Once we've released the weight of old emotions, we can begin to uncover what’s still influencing you beneath the surface. Together, we’ll explore:
We then call upon all those positive resources to find resolution for the small child parts within. We use all the healing tools we have to extinguish destructive emotions, behavioral patterns, and self-conclusions.
- The unconscious patterns that continue to shape your thoughts and actions
- The deep-seated beliefs you’ve formed about yourself
- The automatic decisions that may be limiting your growth today
