About Megan Vaccaro
Megan Vaccaro is a Licensed Master Social Worker with a practice rooted in respect, clear communication, and practical problem solving. A graduate of Wayne State University in Detroit, she brings two decades of professional experience helping individuals, couples, and families navigate depression, anxiety, grief, behavior concerns, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and parenting challenges. As an LMSW - Licensed Master Social Worker - she blends clinical training with a compassionate, down-to-earth approach to support people through difficult moments.
Megan relies on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify and challenge unhelpful thinking patterns so they can create more positive experiences. She also uses dialectical behavior therapy, emphasizing mindfulness - the practice of noticing thoughts and feelings - along with distress tolerance skills, emotion regulation strategies, and tools for improving interpersonal effectiveness. Solution-focused techniques complement these approaches by targeting practical steps and realistic goals when problem solving is a priority.
She works from a non-judgmental stance that aims to create a space where clients feel comfortable sharing the circumstances that brought them to therapy. Megan values effective communication and treats people with the same respect and consideration she would want for her own family. Her style is collaborative and pragmatic, aimed at helping clients build skills, clarify priorities, and make meaningful changes over time.
