Megan DeRiso, PsyD

Welcome! My therapeutic style is relational, warm, and grounded in evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based interventions. I believe therapy should feel safe, collaborative, and empowering.

My name is Megan DeRiso, Psy.D., a licensed psychologist with over 7 years of clinical experience. I work with older children, adolescents, and adults experiencing high-functioning anxiety (including perfectionism), stress, burnout, life transitions, chronic health challenges, body image concerns, disordered eating, and healing from narcissistic abuse. I believe therapy should feel safe, collaborative, and empowering.
I specialize in exposure-based treatments, including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD, interoceptive exposure for panic, and progressive exposure strategies for phobias and social anxiety.
Taking the first step to start therapy can feel incredibly vulnerable. If you’re curious about therapy or have questions about how it works, I encourage you to reach out. Even a brief conversation may help you feel more comfortable, explore your options, and decide whether therapy is the right fit for you.
