About Meghan McNulty, LPC

I didn’t choose this work by accident.

Like many therapists, my path to this chair started long before I ever sat in it professionally. My own healing journey taught me something that no textbook could — that real recovery isn’t just about understanding what happened to you. It’s about helping your brain and body finally feel safe enough to let it go.

That personal experience changed everything about how I practice.

Where science meets healing

I came to counseling through an unconventional route — with a background in biology, I was always fascinated by the brain. How it adapts, how it protects us, and how those same protective systems can quietly keep us stuck long after the threat has passed.

When I discovered that therapy could work at that same biological level — actually changing the neural pathways that hold trauma in place — I knew that was the kind of work I wanted to do. Not just talking about pain, but genuinely rewiring it.

That curiosity led me to become a Licensed Professional Counselor and a trained EMDR therapist. Today, after more than a decade of practice, I integrate that science-informed lens into everything I do.

What working with me looks like

I’m not a blank-slate therapist. I’m warm, direct, and genuinely invested in the people I work with. You won’t spend years in my office rehashing the same stories — my goal is to help you actually move through them.

I work best with adults who are done just surviving and are ready to do the deeper work. People who are high-functioning on the outside but exhausted from holding it all together. People who have tried therapy before and felt like something was missing.

If that sounds like you, you’re in the right place.

A practice built for everyone

I created Counseling Rewired to be a space where people who have historically been underserved by mental health care can access sophisticated, affirming treatment. That includes People of Color, the LGBTQ+ community, and adults navigating a later-life autism diagnosis.

Healing isn’t one-size-fits-all. Neither is this practice.

Let’s work together

I offer specialized online therapy to adults throughout New Jersey — including Hackensack, Jersey City, Voorhees, and beyond — so you can access this work from wherever you feel most comfortable.

If you’re ready to move from surviving to truly healing, I’d love to connect.
