Megan Cameron, LMFT

Being a child or teen today is tough. There are many expectations placed on children starting at a young age. Managing these expectations can create a lot of pressure for our young ones. Children and teens need guidance and support to understand their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. These pressures may be even greater if your child or teen identifies or is questioning their identity within the LGBTQ* community. As a proud ally, I specialize in working with LGBTQ* youth, especially transgender youth, and their families in building identities, strengthening relationships, and navigating gender affirming care. I also specialize in working with youth who struggle with anxiety and depression and have yet to tap into their gifts that make them uniquely who they are. I offer to you my 10 years of clinical experience, a safe place to work through struggles, embrace strengths, and find successes, as well as a welcoming approach including play, games, art, and imagination.
