I have completed Level 1 & 2 training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy and when working with couples I channel my skills towards building a strong base to increase relationship intimacy through healthy communication, conflict resolution, & making life dreams come true.

Peace and Balance Counseling

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Will I ever feel like myself again? It can feel as though a part of you has vanished, leaving behind an emptiness nothing seems to ease. Life feels muted; colors less vivid, joy just out of reach. Some days, you hardly recognize the person you’ve become. You want to move forward, yet every step feels heavy and uncertain. When you think about the future, it often appears distant and dark, leaving you wondering how life reached this point. Therapy with me offers a safe, supportive space to untangle the layers of your emotions, thoughts, and experiences. I provide a compassionate environment where you can openly explore anxiety, depression, and the challenges weighing on you. Even if you feel trapped by your current circumstances, it is possible to find clarity, direction, and a sense of freedom through working with a professional. Will happiness return? Yes. Counseling can help you reconnect with who you want to be and how you want to feel. This is your opportunity to make a change and step away from the life that has been holding you down. Take the step you’ve been postponing and reconnect with your confident, joyful self. I’m here to help when you’re ready. Reach out today to begin.

Megan Shurtleff

Counselor/Therapist, LSW
My clinical experience includes working with individuals and groups experiencing anxiety (generalized, OCD, PTSD), depression, bipolar disorder, substance use disorder, attachment-related issues, adjustment issues, and grief. I have worked with various populations across different settings including working with adolescents in a community program, dual diagnosis clinical setting, and in crisis intervention in a hospital setting. Using a strengths-based and client-centered approach to therapy, I work collaboratively with clients to address their current difficulties by identifying root causes and individualized goals for change. My goal is to empower individuals to create a pathway to achieving these goals by developing and implementing strategies and coping skills that can best help them achieve lasting and meaningful changes on their terms. I am a licensed LSW in NJ, working toward LCSW licensure. I obtained my Bachelor of Arts in both Psychology and Anthropology, and my Masters of Social Work from Binghamton University. I utilize an eclectic approach to therapy, allowing therapeutic experience to be adapted to best suit each individual’s needs and circumstances. I provide a warm, open, and nonjudgmental space to work through the change process. Modalities I use include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Person-Centered Therapy.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Hello, and thank you for visiting my profile. "People can cry much easier than they can change." — James Baldwin Life can be challenging, and sometimes the weight of anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, parenting struggles, family conflict, trauma, or major life transitions can leave you feeling overwhelmed and uncertain about what comes next. Taking the first step toward therapy is not always easy, but you do not have to navigate these challenges alone. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Parent Coach, educator, and mother of four with more than 20 years of experience helping children, teens, adults, couples, and families build healthier, more fulfilling lives. My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, parenting support, adolescent issues, self-esteem, trauma, family relationships, and life transitions. I often joke that I speak fluent teen, but my true passion is helping people strengthen their relationships, improve communication, and develop the confidence needed to overcome life's challenges. I believe that you are the expert on your own life. My role is to provide guidance, support, and practical tools while helping you uncover the strengths that already exist within you. Together, we will create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore concerns, build resilience, develop healthy coping skills, and create meaningful change. My therapeutic approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your individual needs. Whether you are seeking therapy for yourself, your child, your relationship, or your family, I am committed to helping you achieve your goals and develop the skills needed to thrive both now and in the future. I provide in-person therapy in Montclair, New Jersey, as well as secure online therapy throughout New Jersey and Florida. I offer a complimentary consultation and would welcome the opportunity to discuss how we can work together.
