Why Meghan Became a Counselor: Meghan’s journey to becoming a counselor was inspired by her early experiences living overseas in Kuwait, where she witnessed significant wealth disparity and the challenges faced by people from all walks of life. Her desire to help those less fortunate began with volunteering and creating care packages for refugees. As she grew older, Meghan realized she could leverage her strengths through counseling. This realization was solidified during her undergraduate internship at a domestic violence shelter, where she worked with survivors to help them build resilience and reach their goals. Nothing gives Meghan more satisfaction than being part of someone's journey towards achieving their goals.
