Meg Wheeler, APSW
Advanced Practice Social Work
Mental Health Provider – Therapist
I am a passionate advocate for social justice and strive to challenge policies and practices that harm marginalized communities. This commitment is a vital part of my practice, as I weave feminist and queer theory into my approach. I aim to create a safe and inclusive space where you can feel truly welcomed and understood.
On a personal note, I am a veteran and previously spent many years as a military spouse, living in places like South Korea, Germany, Texas, Washington, Alabama, Arizona, and South Carolina. As a proud mother of two exceptional children and the wife of a wonderful spouse, I also cherish my role as a dog mom. I have a love for music, especially live performances, and I enjoy attending concerts. I find joy in spending time outdoors, whether it’s camping, hiking, or simply enjoying nature. Food is another passion of mine, and I take great delight in discovering new flavors and exploring wines.
I look forward to the possibility of working together and supporting you on your journey!
