About

Meghan Quinlan-Ilich is an LPC who frames counseling as a collaborative process that supports personal growth and authenticity. She holds a Master of Arts in Clinical Counseling from Centenary University and a Master of Science in Addictions Counseling from Grand Canyon University. Her training includes internships and post-graduate work across traditional outpatient settings as well as Intensive Outpatient and Partial Hospitalization programs.

Her clinical work spans individuals, couples, and families addressing concerns such as addiction, infidelity and trust, self esteem, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, life transitions, divorce, caregiver stress, and elder adult issues. She uses a blend of approaches including Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Family Dynamics, and Person Centered Therapy to shape treatment outlines that reflect each person’s goals.

Meghan describes her style as warm and interactive. She asks thoughtful questions to encourage deeper reflection and explores clients’ beliefs and backgrounds to be sensitive to cultural differences. She responds to messages on Mondays between 10am and 8pm but asks for patience if an immediate reply is not possible. Some open sessions are available and other scheduling can be discussed.

Remote sessions and therapeutic style



Meghan offers online options that use a collaborative process to set goals and try techniques together.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy is offered for building skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness when those areas are a focus.

She also integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy concepts to help people clarify values and take committed action toward what matters to them. Sessions are interactive, with Meghan asking questions and tailoring interventions from several approaches to match the client’s needs and objectives.
