Hi, I’m Megan Celestina!

I entered the world of counseling in order to help empower others. To recognize their strengths and natural abilities, and to build upon the tenacity that exists in their blind spots. I'm here to hear your story and share the tools in my toolbox, but you are the hero in your journey. So far, this has been the most fulfilling part of growing with the clients I've supported.

You'll find me to be serious when I need to be, but also lighthearted and ready for curveballs. I've learned that good therapy requires a combination of reason, humor, and creativity (did you know that our brains retain information best when we are at play?).

My goal is to help you develop the understanding and habits that allow you to meet your goals & remove limits you didn't realize existed.

One topic we cover repeatedly in our Empowerment Groups is how to identify what OVERCROWDS our thoughts.⁣
⁣
School responsibilities, future decisions on the horizon, comparison, and past regrets top the list.⁣
⁣
Then we looked at HOW these thoughts contribute to feelings of stress, WHERE we feel them in our bodies, and what emotional reactions come up when we experience these sensations.⁣
⁣
For those of you who are raising teens (or who remember being teens yourselves), you won't be surprised to hear that often these physical stress responses are closely tied with feelings of anger and anxiety.⁣
⁣
Today in Group, we're covering WHY this FIGHT or FLIGHT response is necessary for our survival, and how we can calm it down when it's working against us!⁣

More than half of all adults have gone through an "extremely stressful" or "disturbing" event at some point of their lives.

For many, those events have left them feeling helpless and hopeless, even years after it occurred.

This week at Elevate Counseling, we're talking about how important it is to treat lingering psychological wounds. If you've endured a traumatic experience and that experience is having a profound emotional impact on your life, please follow the link below to my blog!

Our experiences can cause brain circuits to change and send us into a fight or flight response before we even have a chance to think things through or ask ourselves if we are in real danger. Learn about Evidence-Based treatment for trauma

💝 Creating memories that matter is one of the most precious gifts in life. ⁣
⁣
Some days life spontaneously takes us on adventures, and we get swept up in wonderful journeys. ⁣🌴🌴
⁣
👁‍🗨 On other days, it's about noticing the beauty in the mundane. ⁣
⁣
Whether the experience is planned or spontaneous, we always have the option to infuse an activity with our own style, creativity, resourcefulness, innovation, gratitude, and love.⁣

🤗 What moments will you create?⁣
