Welcome to Herscher Counseling Associates
You Don’t Have to Figure It Out Alone.
Life can be complicated. Sometimes you know exactly what’s wrong. Sometimes you just know that something doesn’t feel right. And sometimes, you’re not even sure where to begin.
That’s where we come in.
At Herscher Counseling Associates, we believe therapy should be a place where you can show up as your whole self—without judgment, without having to explain or defend who you are, and without feeling like you have to navigate everything on your own.
Our team of clinicians brings diverse backgrounds, perspectives, training, and areas of specialization to our practice. From anxiety, depression, and trauma to relationships, grief, life transitions, neurodivergence, LGBTQ+ concerns, identity development, and many other challenges, we believe there is no one-size-fits-all approach to mental health.
That’s why we take the time to understand you—your experiences, your goals, your strengths, and what you need from therapy. Our clinicians use a variety of therapeutic approaches and specialize in different areas, allowing us to connect you with a provider whose expertise and style are a good fit for your needs.
Whether you’re looking for support during a difficult season, working through something that has been weighing on you for years, or simply ready to better understand yourself, you deserve a space where you feel safe, respected, and genuinely understood.
With three locations and convenient telehealth options, Herscher Counseling Associates is here to make finding that support a little easier.
You’ve already taken the first step by being here. Let’s take the next one together.

Hi! I’m Dr. Megan Herscher, and since 2004 I’ve been working with people coping with life’s challenges. At Herscher Counseling Associates, we believe in a holistic approach to wellness, and that with the help of a counselor even life’s most difficult experiences can be overcome. My counseling philosophy is that seeking help is a demonstration of strength, and that wellness and thriving in today’s difficult world is possible thorough the help of a counselor.

As a member of the Herscher Counseling Associates administrative team, I’m passionate about helping create a practice where both clients and clinicians feel supported, respected, and valued. I help with the behind-the-scenes work that keeps our growing practice running smoothly while supporting our team in providing thoughtful, accessible, and compassionate care.
I believe that a great counseling experience starts long before a client sits down for their first session. From connecting clients with the right clinician to supporting our providers and helping shape the culture of our practice, I’m committed to making Herscher Counseling Associates a welcoming place to find support.
