Welcome!

My name is Megan and I'm a former educator turned mentor serving clients in Lancaster, PA and virtually world-wide. I have a particular interest in supporting introspective individuals from Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z, especially those who identify as spiritual rather than religious.

As a lifelong learner, I am dedicated to self-growth.

For the past twenty years-five, I’ve worked in a variety of helping professions and settings from public school teaching, to directing a non-profit, to parish ministry, hospital chaplaincy, and community based mental health. All of these experiences have formed and inform how I work with clients today.
