Megan E. Lavery

Megan is dual licensed as a massage therapist and associate professional counselor.  She specializes in using mind-body therapies, mindfulness, and body-centered psychotherapy in the treatment of anxiety, stress reduction, depression, trauma, grief, chronic illness, inner child healing, life transitions, and personal growth. She is a 2016 graduate of Prescott College with a Masters of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a focus in Somatic Psychology. 

She has been a licensed massage therapist for 24 years and is certified in both Process Acupressure and Zero Balancing.  Both ZB and PA are hands-on body-mind systems that help clients fully integrate all levels of themselves: mind, body, emotions, and spirit.  Megan believes that each client is the expert on their own healing, and works collaboratively with them to determine which approaches work best. 

Megan is a published author on Therapeutic Relationships and has served on the Ethics and Discipline Committee for the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage & Bodywork since 2011. 

Megan is also an experienced educator.  She taught a wide variety of classes in an entry-level massage training program at the Natural Health Institute of Bowling Green (now Genesis Career College) from 2002 to 2014.  She teaches Zero Balancing and SEVA stress release.
