Meagan is a Master of Social Work student who holds a Bachelor of Professional Arts and a diploma in Early Childhood Education. She has experience supporting individuals and families affected by domestic violence, trauma, housing instability, substance use, and involvement with Child and Family Services. Her professional background includes case management, crisis intervention, safety planning, parenting support, systems navigation, and advocacy within family-law and child-intervention systems.

Her early childhood education background gives Meagan a strong understanding of child development, behaviour, emotional regulation, and the importance of responsive parent–child relationships. She has completed Level One Theraplay training, as well as training in Circle of Security Parenting, Brain Story science, Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training, and Nonviolent Crisis Intervention.

Meagan is passionate about helping parents understand their rights, strengthen their relationships with their children, and participate meaningfully in decisions affecting their families. She recognizes that navigating complex systems can feel overwhelming, particularly when families are also managing trauma, financial pressures, or major life transitions. Her approach is collaborative, compassionate, and practical. It is grounded in the belief that families deserve to be treated with dignity and included as active partners in their own care.

Her practice aligns with trauma-informed, attachment-based, strengths-based, person-centred, and family-systems approaches. She also draws from ecological systems theory to understand how relationships, community supports, social conditions, and institutional systems affect individuals and families. Meagan incorporates principles of harm reduction and solution-focused practice to help clients recognize their existing strengths, develop realistic goals, and create meaningful and sustainable change.

Meagan is particularly interested in infant and childhood mental health, attachment, emotional regulation, parent–child relationships, family violence, and child-welfare advocacy. Above all, she believes effective social work begins with listening. She strives to create a safe and respectful space where individuals feel heard, understood, and supported as they work toward greater stability, connection, and hope for their families.
