Megan Schilt, LPC, NCC
My personal and professional experiences have given me the compassion and understanding needed to create safe and strong therapeutic relationships with people to assist in self-exploration, processing difficult life events, identifying barriers, problem-solving, and creating personal growth and change necessary to achieve one’s highest potential and quality of life. I believe that everyone has the capacity for self-healing and that we all need help, support, and guidance at times throughout our life. Afterall, we are only human. I strive to empower the people I work with rather than to enable them. We all have the potential for achieving our highest quality of life. I am passionate about joining with others as they work toward their best life possible.
