Megan Larson, MA, LMFT

I approach sessions with a non-judgmental stance and want to ensure that the client feels heard and validated while also being challenged when needed.
As a DBT therapist I work with clients individually and in group settings. I believe that everyone should learn DBT skills as these skills can lead to positive outcomes and help you take control over your life. I truly feel honored that I get to be a part of this chapter for you and help support the changes that you make to achieve your life worth living goals.
I also work in outpatient and see adolescents, adults, couples and families. I ensure that I provide a safe space where people feel comfortable processing and can learn effective ways to cope with everything that life throws at you.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy

ACP’s DBT program adheres to the Linehan model of DBT, is certified by MN DHS. Our clients meet with their individual therapist for one hour a week and attend a two-hour weekly skills group for at least 26 weeks. Unlike traditional group psychotherapy which focuses on processing experiences and feelings, DBT groups focus on learning four sets of important skills: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT is a very effective treatment for multiple conditions including borderline personality disorder, depression, PTSD, impulsivity, eating disorders, and some forms of anxiety.

Telehealth Services

To expand and improve our care options for clients, ACP offers Telehealth (phone or video) appointments. Telehealth uses phone or video conferencing to connect you with highly qualified and experienced providers in real-time from the comfort and convenience of your own home or office. Before your telehealth appointment, you will receive details for how you will connect with your provider. If you will be connecting via phone, the provider will plan to call you at your scheduled appointment time. Please be ready to take the call and also check that your phone allows calls from blocked numbers (accessible within your phone settings). If you will be connecting via video conference, your provider will email you an invite to join the appointment. Please call our office to learn more about ACP’s telehealth services and to schedule an appointment.
