Hi, I’m Meagan
Helping Ambitious Individuals Thrive — In Work and Life

Helping You Thrive, Inside and Out

I’m Dr. Meagan Yarmey, a PhD-trained clinician and Registered Social Worker with over 20 years of experience supporting high-achieving and ambitious individuals who feel the weight of pressure, expectations, and self-doubt.

My work is rooted in psychology — how people think, feel, behave, and perform under stress — and I integrate this with evidence-based therapy. This means you’re not just getting traditional talk therapy. You’re getting a blend of psychological science, performance strategies, and practical tools that help you create real, lasting change.

I help you:

Build authentic confidence and self-trust
Quiet self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and a harsh inner critic
Manage anxiety, stress, perfectionism, and burnout
Strengthen emotional resilience and clarity
Balance ambition with wellbeing — without losing your edge

Outcome: Feel grounded, capable, and fully yourself — at work, at home, and everywhere in between.

Why I do This Work

Even the most competent, driven people can struggle. I understand what it feels like to hold yourself to high standards while trying to keep everything together publicly.

I help you:

Make sense of internal pressure and overthinking
Break out of perfectionism and chronic self-criticism
Navigate anxiety, low mood, and emotional overwhelm
Rebuild clarity, resilience, and confidence
Align your values, wellbeing, and professional goals

My goal is to help you move through life with more steadiness, self-understanding, and confidence — not less ambition.

A Little About Me

I bring a mind-body perspective from Zen Shiatsu, yoga, and mindfulness. I’m also a solo parent who loves cooking, hiking, and photography — practices that keep me grounded and connected.

I understand how drive, pressure, and self-expectation show up in show up in real life, and I draw on that experience to help clients navigate their own challenges with clarity and confidence.
