Meg Gallear (she/her)

Sometimes the bravest thing we can do is just show up. Prioritizing yourself, your relationships, and your needs is one of the greatest gifts we can give. When you show up at therapy, you take your first steps towards growth and healing and you won’t be on the journey alone. 

Meg Gallear is trained and certified in Gottman Couples Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and a Certified Trauma Professional. She is dedicated to supporting clients in achieving meaningful and lasting growth. She practices from an intersectional and social justice oriented lens that centers on her client’s lived experiences. 

Meg specializes in working with couples and families navigating complex relational dynamics and personal challenges. Whether you’re hoping to repair and address pain or betrayal, increase connection, or build healthy communication patterns, set boundaries, and live a more authentic life, Meg can help you have the conversation. 

As a queer therapist, she focuses on queer issues and sexuality, creating a safe and affirming place for clients to explore their identities and heal from past events. Her warm, non-judgmental approach foster safety where clients feel comfortable sharing their stories and working through difficult transitions, whether related to identity exploration, coming out, or reconciling with religious beliefs.
