Megan Toy, AASW

Megan is an AASW-credentialed social worker practicing in Australia with three years of professional experience. AASW indicates membership in the Australian Association of Social Workers, reflecting her training and standing within the Australian social work community. Her practice has included supporting people living with mental and physical disabilities and working with veterans to navigate and overcome adversity.

Megan works with a broad range of concerns, including stress, anxiety and panic disorders, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, motivational and self-esteem difficulties, confidence problems, and depression.
