Meghan McCracken LCSW Intern
Education
I hold a Masters degree in Clinical Social Work from Rutgers University. I have six years of experience working in death and dying. I have experience in counseling individuals, children, and families in a variety of settings. Meghan is under the supervision of Alberta Torres, LCSW.
Services Offered
Individual, Family and Couples counseling.
Theoretical Orientation
Although my education and background is versed in various theoretical foundations, I do not hold fast to any one specific theory or method and greatly align with a person-centered Humanistic and Existential approach honoring each client as a unique individual with their own personal experiences and needs. I strive to provide a non-judgmental, safe space in order to establish trust and rapport in every therapy session. It is imperative for every single individual to feel seen and heard by me. I believe in the mind-body connection, trauma-informed care and utilizing your creative mind to establish coping skills and self-care strategies. I promote healing by carefully listening and reflecting key questions when necessary. I am currently working in one of Portland's finest elementary schools for Western Psychological & Counseling Services on the school-based team. I often use CBT, DBT, child-centered play therapy, and art therapy when working with students.
