Michelle Meehan, MA, LPCC, is a psychodynamic psychotherapist with specific training and experience working with adolescents at various of levels of care. Michelle employs ideas from Winnicott and Lacan, interwoven with deeply nerdy special interests. Her appreciation for fandom cultures has drawn in a steady flow of individuals struggling to feel included and "normal" at a phase of life when there are few desires more profound. She routinely finds the taking of genuine interest in a young person's thoughts and words, no matter how odd or niche, is a tremendous boon to strengthening both ego and attachment.
