The Therapy Process
What Working Together Looks Like
Online therapy with Meredith is personalized rather than one-size-fits-all. The process begins with understanding what brings you to therapy and develops collaboratively around your goals, experiences, and pace.
Start With a Brief Consultation
Request a free 10-minute consultation to ask introductory questions, share what you are looking for, and determine whether scheduling an initial session feels appropriate.
Discuss What Brings You to Therapy
During your first session, Meredith will learn more about your current concerns, relevant experiences, recurring patterns, and what you hope will feel different through therapy.
Create a Personalized Approach
Meredith will recommend an individualized direction for therapy. Treatment may draw from trauma-informed, attachment-based, somatic, depth-oriented, and evidence-based approaches according to your needs.
Review Progress Collaboratively
As therapy continues, you and Meredith can revisit your goals, discuss what feels helpful, and adjust the pace, focus, or therapeutic approach as your needs evolve.
All sessions are provided through secure telehealth to clients located throughout Michigan. Contact Meredith with questions about getting started.

How can Meredith help me?
Meredith provides personalized online therapy for adults across Michigan. She works with clients navigating anxiety, trauma and attachment wounds, ADHD, harmful relationship dynamics, narcissistic abuse recovery, mood-related concerns, burnout, life transitions, reproductive mental health, and other emotional challenges.
Therapy is tailored to your needs and may draw from several therapeutic approaches. If you are unsure whether Meredith may be the right fit, contact Meredith with questions.
Where are therapy sessions held?
Meredith provides online therapy through secure telehealth to adults located throughout Michigan. Sessions allow you to meet from a private location within Michigan without traveling to an office.
Do I really need a therapist?
You do not need to be in crisis for therapy to be helpful. Many people begin therapy because they feel stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or caught in recurring emotional or relationship patterns they want to understand.
Therapy can provide space to develop self-awareness, strengthen coping skills, improve relationships, and make more intentional, sustainable changes.
What if I feel uncomfortable starting therapy?
Feeling nervous or uncertain when starting therapy is common, particularly when sharing personal experiences with someone new. Meredith takes a collaborative and supportive approach, allowing therapy to move at a pace that feels manageable.
You are not expected to discuss an experience before you feel ready, and questions about the process are always welcome.
How is Meredith’s approach different from other therapists?
Meredith uses an individualized and collaborative approach rather than relying on one fixed treatment model. Therapy may incorporate depth-oriented, trauma-informed, somatic, attachment-based, and evidence-based methods according to your needs and goals.
The work is designed to help you understand recurring patterns, develop greater emotional awareness, and pursue changes that feel personally meaningful.
What if I do not have time for therapy?
Work, family, caregiving, and other responsibilities can make therapy difficult to prioritize. Online sessions remove travel time and may make care easier to incorporate into a demanding schedule.
Session frequency can be discussed with Meredith based on your needs, goals, and availability.
Will insurance cover my therapy?
Meredith currently accepts Aetna, Aetna Medicare Advantage, Anthem EAP, Ascension SmartHealth, Blue Cross Blue Shield plans, Carelon Behavioral Health, Cigna and Evernorth, Cigna EAP, Humana Medicare Advantage, Independence Administrators, Independence Blue Cross Pennsylvania, Independent Health, Priority Health, and Quest Behavioral Health.
Coverage and out-of-pocket costs vary by plan. Contact Meredith to confirm that your specific plan is currently accepted, and verify your mental health benefits directly with your insurance provider.
What can I expect during my first session with Meredith?
Your first session gives Meredith an opportunity to learn what brings you to therapy, what you hope to change, and which experiences or patterns may be affecting you.
Meredith will answer your questions, share initial observations, and discuss whether working together feels like a good fit. You can also review possible next steps and what ongoing therapy could look like.
What therapeutic approaches does Meredith use?
Meredith uses an integrative approach. Depending on your needs and goals, therapy may incorporate EMDR, Brainspotting, somatic approaches, Somatic Experiencing, Internal Family Systems (IFS), psychodynamic therapy, attachment-based therapy, CBT, DBT, ACT, and mindfulness-based methods.
The specific approach is selected collaboratively and may change as therapy progresses.
How many therapy sessions will I need?
There is no preset number of sessions. The appropriate timeline depends on your goals, the concerns you want to address, and how deeply you want to explore recurring experiences or patterns.
Some clients prefer shorter-term focused work, while others benefit from longer-term therapy. Meredith will discuss session frequency and progress with you throughout the process.
What are the possible risks of engaging in therapy?
Therapy may bring up difficult emotions, memories, or reactions while exploring experiences that feel painful or unresolved. Some people notice temporary changes in mood, stress, sleep, or relationships as new insights emerge.
Meredith will work collaboratively with you, help you process these reactions, and respect your pace. You are never expected to discuss an experience before you feel ready.
