MEGAN STEINBECK, LMSW

EXPERIENCE

I bring several years of experience in the mental health field, having had the privilege of working across various settings, including community health centers and private practice. My journey has allowed me to provide support to a diverse range of clients, from children to adults, couples, and families. Through this experience, I have cultivated a deep commitment to fostering mental well-being and gained valuable insights into the complexities of human behavior. I pride myself on building effective and compassionate therapeutic relationships, ensuring that each client feels understood, validated, and supported on their unique path to healing.

CURRENT TREATMENT FOCUS 

At Well Life, my dedication lies in addressing the multifaceted needs of clients grappling with anxiety, trauma, and depression. I specialize in creating customized treatment plans that integrate active techniques in mindfulness, yogic practices, self-compassion, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and nature-informed therapy. My focus extends to supporting individuals who are navigating challenges related to addiction and eating disorders, as well as providing guidance for those facing relationship difficulties, stress, and issues related to sexuality. My ultimate goal is to empower clients to cultivate self-compassion and resilience, guiding them toward a healthier, more balanced life. I encourage everyone to embody positive intentions as we embark on this transformative journey together.

TREATMENT APPROACH AND MODALITIES

My therapeutic approach is integrative and client-centered, thoughtfully tailored to meet the individual needs of each client. I incorporate mindfulness practices and yogic techniques alongside evidence-based therapies, such as DBT and CBT, to create a safe and nurturing environment for exploration and growth. I believe in the power of open communication and collaboration, which enables clients to develop the coping strategies and skills necessary for lasting change and well-being.

OUTSIDE OF SESSION

When I’m not in session, you can find me hiking and immersing myself in the beauty of nature, which brings me peace and clarity. I enjoy experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen and practicing yoga to maintain my mindfulness. Additionally, I have a passion for reading across various genres and diving into creative pursuits such as painting and crafting. These activities not only enrich my life but also inspire the work I do with clients.
