About

Imagine a therapy session where the gentle presence of a horse helps guide your journey towards healing and self-discovery. This unique approach is the cornerstone of Megan McCormack's practice, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Equine Specialist in Mental Health and Learning (ESMHL). Megan believes in walking alongside her clients as they navigate their life's story, empowering them to create their most ideal, authentic selves.

Megan's innovative approach combines traditional therapy models with equine-assisted psychotherapy, offering a powerful avenue for growth and healing. As a certified equine specialist, she harnesses the innate sensitivity and non-judgmental nature of horses to facilitate transformative experiences for her clients. This distinctive method can be particularly effective in breaking negative cycles, processing past experiences, and fostering personal empowerment.

Drawing from her diverse professional background, Megan brings a wealth of experience to her practice. Her time working at a psychiatric hospital and as a substance abuse counselor has equipped her to address a wide range of mental health issues. Additionally, her experience running equine-assisted programs for Hampton Roads military members demonstrates her commitment to serving diverse populations and her ability to adapt her techniques to various needs.

Understanding that not everyone may be comfortable with or interested in equine therapy, Megan offers flexibility in her services. Clients can choose from virtual sessions, traditional therapy in a beautiful farm setting, or sessions that incorporate equine interactions. This variety allows clients to find the approach that best suits their comfort level and therapeutic goals. The peaceful farm environment itself serves as a tool for healing, offering clients the opportunity to regulate their nervous system and benefit from the calming effects of nature.

Megan's practice is built on the belief that everyone deserves the chance to heal and grow. She views it as an honor to guide clients on their journey towards self-improvement and authenticity. Whether you're seeking help to break negative patterns, process past experiences, or simply find a new perspective on life's challenges, Megan McCormack offers a unique and powerful approach to therapy that combines professional expertise with the transformative power of equine interactions.
