Testimonials
“I think it speaks volumes that just my initial assessment appointment was more helpful than any other therapy sessions I’ve had in the past. I had reached a point where I was beginning to lose hope and was so tired of not being fully listened to by the very people who were supposed to be able to help me, and whose solutions were to just keep prescribing medication I didn’t need or want.
I am so grateful I found Megan when I did and working with her has made me at last feel seen and heard, as well as safe and supported. After years of being made to feel there was something wrong with me, it was such a relief to actually hear my difficulties were a normal reaction to very challenging things that happened to me growing up.
Megan has so much experience in a wide range of areas and because of this we have been able to try out different approaches and ways of working to find those that are most helpful to me. I never feel rushed or pushed beyond a pace I can manage, but at the same time, we are able to work through difficult and sometimes painful things that other therapists were reluctant to explore.
Megan is so generous with her compassion, time and understanding and I cannot recommend Harbour Psychology highly enough. I still have a lot more work to do, but thanks to Megan, I feel hopeful again and slowly but surely feeling more able to make the positive changes I need to grow and thrive.”

“I very much appreciated Megan's many qualities as a therapist but - most importantly - I trusted her with my deepest, darkest secrets. This trust allowed us to unravel decades of relationship and behavioural issues in order to reach resolution.
I liked Megan's approach: She was a good listener, offered gentle guidance and voiced her opinions when I asked for them. Not all therapists are able or willing to do this.
I would absolutely recommend Megan.”

“Undertaking therapy for me was a journey: sometimes difficult and emotional but ultimately rewarding and life changing. Having an experienced guide like Megan in our sessions made all the difference. Megan is well qualified in a variety of therapeutic approaches and combined those skills with a warmth, kindness and real compassion. I am truly grateful to Megan for the help she has given me.”

“As with many people seeking to work with a therapist, I have experienced suffering in my life. This suffering altered my ability to experience life in a way that I felt was fulfilled. I was reactive to my internal and external world, experiencing extreme emotions, thoughts or the opposite, nothing at all. My connections with people were dysfunctional, leaving me with a sense of imbalance. I was dependent on others and substances to regulate myself. I didn’t know who I was or where I was going.
After working for several years with a few therapists and peer support groups I was still having difficulty living. I felt that I needed a different support than what I was being given. I somehow found Megan and began working with her. After we sat together for a bit, talking and telling my story, she introduced the idea of trauma and that I may have experienced situations in my life that I am responding to in way that is dysregulating. I agreed to collaborate with her on working with myself and felt experiences. Shifting from the mind’s story and beginning to listen to my body. The mind/body are connected and tell us so much about ourselves when they are in communication. Megan had the ability to be present and available and therefore helped me discover myself, developing trust and compassion. This has been a fruitful journey of noticing my suffering and learning to feel, regulate, come into balance, and build/repair connections with me and other people. I have a sense of deep gratitude. She is a human that is able to meet you where you are and offers a sense of safety, compassion, understanding, openness, connection, holding, and joy.”

“When I first started working with Dr Kendall, I had a lot of ongoing issues. These included drug and alcohol abuse, anorexia, PTSD and feelings of depression and anxiety. I have worked with several different therapists, but it was my work with Megan that really felt different and that helped me immensely in my growth. I went from a place where I was feeling extremely low and completely out of my depth, to now having a sense of confidence and self-worth as well as a sense of stability that I could not have imagined before. I went from feeling completely overwhelmed by the challenges of University and daily life, to feeling passionate about my studies and experiencing a sense of success and self-growth both within my personal and academic life.
I say working with Dr Kendall, because she really did make it feel like we were a team. She used many different techniques to guide me during my journey and gave me a tool box of skills that keep expanding and that I use daily, even two years after finishing therapy. I am now officially two years clean when it comes to all drug use as well as smoking, and this would not have been possible without Dr Kendall. I am deeply grateful for her support and highly recommend her to anyone who is seeking a therapist to guide them through difficult times.”
