Learn more about me:

Throughout my journey of overcoming multiple health conditions I thought were a life sentence, I've developed a deep empathy for my clients. I know what it's like to feel lost, defeated, and struggling with chronic symptoms only to be offered another pill or to be looked at like you are crazy for what you are reporting to your provider because your lab work appears "normal."

This frustrating experience propelled me into the functional medicine space, where I learned how to treat my body as a whole, how nervous system dy-sregulation influences our entire mind, body, and Spirit connection, and how use this knowledge to reverse symptoms I thought were a life sentence.

As a result, I reclaimed my vitality and an embodied faith.

This led me to open my own consulting practice, where I now help women find solutions to their health problems as well.

When I first entered into the Functional Medicine space, I felt like I was drowning in the amount of recommended supplements, protocols and conflicting advice. I was also sad to see that many Practitioners were not aligned with a biblical world view. This motivated to keep my practice biblically rooted and evidenced based.

My practice quickly grew by word of mouth, I became fully booked every month, and I was amazed at the results I was seeing!

This was when I realized I needed to increase my capacity to help more women.

Which is why, in addition to working with women one on one, I decided to start a monthly membership, where I can offer you support, while also connecting you with other holistically minded Christian women, and provide resources that have been thoroughly researched. It is something I wish I had when I was first beginning my journey.

I believe I bring a unique perspective because of my background, experience, + training.

I have over 10 years of education including a Masters Degree in Nursing, 10 years of clinical experience, and multiple certifications including:

• Board Certified Family Practice Nurse Practitioner (no longer practicing through this lens).
• Registered Nurse (no longer practicing through this lens).
• Masters Degree in Nursing.
• Former Nephrology NP.
• Former Cardiology + PCU Registered Staff Nurse.
• AFMC Level 2 Functional Medicine Practitioner.
• Functional Nutrition Institute graduate.
• Certified Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) Provider
• Certified Christian Mental Health Coach.
• HTMA trained + Certified.
• Polyvagal + Trauma Informed Practitioner.
• Brainspotting Trained Practitioner.
• Trained in Clinical Somatics.
• Certified in Fascial Fitness.

After working as a full time Nurse Practitioner and registered nurse, I began seeing a flaw in our medical system.

The patient load is heavy, and the time we can spend with our patients is limited. Care is often based on symptom based management with no holistic focus. As a result, many illnesses and patterns of dis-ease are overlooked or soothed with a quick fix. Patients feel unseen, hopeless, neglected, and are given pills for their symptoms that sometimes lead to long term negative effects.

I left conventional medicine behind and established a Functional Medicine Consulting practice where I have sufficient time to spend listening to my client’s concerns, take a deep dive look into the potential root causes of their illnesses, empower them with the education they need to take care of their unique body, and offer an empathetic, listening ear along the way.

I hope to connect with you inside! Keep scrolling to meet my colleague Johnna!

What is the Safe and Sound Protocol?

The SSP is an evidence-based listening therapy designed to reduce sound sensitivities and improve auditory processing, behavioral state regulation, and social engagement behaviors through filtered music. As a practical application of Polyvagal Theory, the SSP acts as a non-invasive, acoustic vagal nerve stimulator, helping to retune the nervous system to better support connection, collaboration and resilience.

The SSP involves listening to specially filtered music through headphones alongside a provider in person or remotely. Suitable for children and adults, the SSP has demonstrated benefits for individuals with trauma, anxiety, sensory processing differences and more.

The Full SSP consists of:

• A 5-hour auditory intervention developed and patented by Dr. Stephen Porges, author of the Polyvagal Theory.
• Due to the power of SSP, it needs to be delivered slowly to avoid overwhelm, so the time it takes to complete depends on your unique tolerance. This is explored in your first initial session with Megan.
• It is designed to reduce sound sensitivity, and improve auditory processing and behavioral state regulation.
• It supports physiological state regulation, allowing for greater resilience.

What Equipment is Required for SSP?

• SSP requires access to over the ear headphones.
• SSP is delivered via an App on your phone.
• After your initial session, you are given direct access to Megan as you independently listen + and you will be encouraged to journal throughout your experience in the portal for close monitoring + receive chat access for ongoing supportive processing.
• Megan also integrates sound therapy via SSP with biblically rooted nervous system practices + somatic self touch, providing you with a tool box of coping skills to pull from throughout your journey.

Is SSP safe for everyone?

No, there are contraindications which include:

• Active or uncontrolled seizures
• Psychosis
• Tinnitus
• If you are extremely sensitive to sound, you may find SSP overwhelming. However, there may be ways to make SSP work for you – like starting with speakers at a super low volume. This will be determined in your first session with Megan.
• People with autoimmune conditions, neurological disorders, or complex chronic illnesses often have a more sensitive nervous system. While SSP holds great potential for relief, these cases require slow and careful pacing. These conditions may still benefit from SSP, but the program must be carefully monitored, and you should have your psychiatrist, mental health or medical provider assess your suitability before starting the program.
• If you are currently self-harming or having active suicidal thoughts, SSP isn’t recommended. But if you’ve had these experiences in the past and they’re under control, SSP might be a supportive option—In this case, Megan will require your primary care provider to approve your plan before beginning.
• Megan is not currently accepting pediatric clients or clients with complex mental health diagnoses such as schizophrenia, psychosis, or bi polar disorder.

Do I have to commit to a certain amount of months?

• There is a commitment of 2 months for the Tier 2 option, then you may cancel at anytime after that.
