Megan Close is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with individuals, couples, and families in New York City and Paradise Valley, Montana. With twenty years of clinical experience, her work is grounded in Systems Theory, which understands an individual's symptoms and behaviors as shaped by their family, community, and broader social environment. She places careful attention on culture, identity, and social context.

Her clinical foundations are Structural and Experiential Family Therapy. She holds additional training in Emotionally Focused Therapy, rooted in Attachment Theory, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Rather than adhering to a single model, she tailors her approach to the needs of each client, drawing fluidly across modalities during each session. She believes therapy is most effective when meaningful change happens in the room, rather than being deferred to homework between sessions.

She specializes in the intersection of developmental trauma, addiction, and neurodivergence. Clients often seek her out when they feel stuck in longstanding patterns that no longer serve them. Megan has served on faculty at New York University, teaching family therapy theory and technique to medical residents. She is known for bringing warmth, candor, humor, and emotional precision into the room.

She helps clients move beyond shame and experience greater ease in their lives and relationships.
