Megan Backus Florio, LCSW

Owner & Therapist

I believe therapy works best when you have a genuine connection with your therapist and feel comfortable to be yourself in an uncomfortable space. My style is warm and nonjudgemental. I want to create a space for you to explore challenges while also gaining practical tools you can use in your daily life. I specialize in maternal mental health and workplace burnout. As a mother of two small children with experience working in the corporate space, I understand the scope of the pressure you might be feeling on a daily basis. Additionally, I have a long history of working with the aging population and specialize working with adults processing feelings of grief due to the death or terminal diagnosis of a loved one. 

I have a Master of Science in Social Work from Columbia University and a Bachelor of Arts from Villanova University majoring in Psychology and Sociology with a minor in Gender and Women’s Studies. I have worked as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 10 years providing clinical interventions to adults as well as training and supervising new social workers in the field. 

I offer virtual sessions in New Jersey, New York, and Virginia.

  • "I am so grateful I found Megan. She is very organized and saw me right away. I have been to other therapists I haven't connected with but she was very warm and I felt like easy to talk to. I'm still new to her but feel like she is helping me a lot already!"

  • "Megan is a breath of fresh air. It is so hard to find a good therapist who is kind, understanding, and organized. I feel so comfortable with her and love that she is always so quick to respond if I ever need to reach out in between sessions with a question or scheduling change. She is the best I am so happy to have found her."
