Meghan Burns As a Licensed Professional Counselor working toward her Registered Play Therapist (RPT) credential, she has supported children and teens since 2016 across K–12 schools, college campuses, and pediatric health settings.

Meghan specializes in OCD, social anxiety, and ADHD in neurodivergent children, pre-teens, and teens. For OCD, she provides Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), the gold-standard treatment that helps kids gradually face feared situations while resisting compulsions. She completed intensive ERP (exposure and response prevention) training through the Center for Anxiety & Behavior Therapy. For social anxiety, she uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help kids challenge anxious thoughts and build confidence in the situations they’ve been avoiding. For ADHD, whether it stands alone or shows up alongside OCD and anxiety, she is an ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider (ADHD-CCSP), supporting kids at school and at home.

Her approach is neuroaffirming and trauma-informed, blending Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT), sandtray therapy, and behavioral treatment to fit each child. Kids get room to express themselves creatively while building real tools to face symptoms head-on, and families leave with strategies that work beyond the therapy room.

Meghan is licensed in Virginia and New York and is a Virginia Board-approved LPC Supervisor for therapists pursuing licensure.
