Megan can assist with referrals for specialized counseling needs and to neuropsychologists for comprehensive testing for autism spectrum diagnosis, attentional and memory issues. 

We will work together to explore the challenges in your life and create a plan of action to improve your quality of life. Depression, anxiety, and chronic stress do not have to be your normal.  

Why choose Bluebird Behavioral Health?

Individualized Care

You are not a diagnosis. You are not a number or a quota like at a large practice or hospital. You are an individual who deserves quality care. I believe that the best outcomes of care come from giving each person the highest level of individual, personalized care.  

Time

You deserve time to be heard and understood. Initial appointments are 75-90 minutes and medication management follow-up appointments are 30 minutes. This allows for ample time for thorough initial evaluation, ongoing evaluation of symptoms, time to ensure your questions are answered, and time to provide you evidence-based education and information to guide your care. I take the time to explore options together and to ensure we are working toward your goals and you feel confident in your care plan. 

You are a person with a unique background, experiences, perspectives, and needs. I take time and listen to you and understand the symptoms and issues impacting your life. I take the time to review your records and “dig deeper” to gather history and information needed to guide treatment. 

Comprehensive Care from a Double-Board Certified Provider 

Megan is one of the few Double-Board Certified providers in Iowa. She is board certified and has practiced in both Mental Health and Family Practice. Many symptoms may have several possible causes and this allows for a more comprehensive assessment of your symptoms to determine cause and best treatment options. 

You should depart your visit feeling heard, understood, informed, and hopeful. Every time.
