I’m Meagan and I love therapists
In 2022, I left the corporate world and never looked back. I took a year sabbatical to reset and rethink my relationship to work and the concept of “career”. Over the past year, I’ve taken my nine years’ experience working in various administrative roles, including as an executive administrative assistant to C-level executives and as a corporate and commercial real estate paralegal, and poured it into my best friend’s group psychotherapy practice—and discovered that I love the work.
In a corporate context and scale, support roles can feel hollow and meaningless—at times even dehumanizing. It is difficult to connect with a sense of purpose in a job that primarily exists to increase the wealth of a few already-wealthy individuals. What I’ve found since is that in solo private practice or small-group mental healthcare companies owned and staffed by aligned individuals, those same duties take on meaning. It feels good to know the work I’m doing is in furtherance of clients receiving quality care from a provider who is not pushed to their limit with the demands of running their practice. And as a therapy client myself, I love giving back to therapists by helping them create space in their schedules to slow down and tend to themselves.
If you are looking for or considering hiring support in running your practice or tackling a specific project, I would love to hear from you!
Policies
When you work with me on an ongoing basis, services can be rendered on either a long-term (6 to 12 months) or month-to-month contract. One-off projects are limited to a specific term appropriate to the nature and scope of the assignment.
Payment
Payment for ongoing services can either be made lump sum on the 1st of each month or in two installments due on the 1st and 15th. You will be invoiced one week before the due date of each payment. For one-off projects, payment is due prior to the commencement of work upon your receipt of my invoice. My preferred payment method is direct debit, but credit card payments can be accepted upon request.
Termination of services
Services are terminable at the end of your contract period. Termination fees apply if you wish to prematurely discontinue services.
Employment status
I perform work as an independent contractor (sometimes referred to as a “1099 employee”). This means you don’t have to be responsible for payroll taxes, workers compensation insurance, Unemployment contributions, benefits, etc., like you would if I were an employee.
HIPAA compliance
I last completed HIPAA training in 2025. In addition to general HIPAA education, my trainings covered the Omnibus Rule, HITECH, California CMIA, and Texas HB 30, as well as HIPAA Security.
Under HIPAA, I am what is known as a “business associate”; as a provider, you are considered a “covered entity”. Business associates are third parties (non-employees) that provide services to covered entities. Covered entities are legally responsible for ensuring that any contractor they hire who will interact with protected health information (PHI or ePHI) is compliant with HIPAA. Should we decide to work together, we will sign a Business Associate Agreement in observance of HIPAA.
Software, apps & programs
A list of the applications, programs, and software I’m currently familiar with can be found here. If I don’t already know how to use everything you’re using for your business workflow, I will learn provided you provide me with access.
Scope
As a certified paralegal, I cannot and do not provide legal advice. I can only provide self-help services at your specific direction. If you need assistance with a legal matter, you must contact an attorney.
Website design
Due to the significant time investment involved I do not offer website design or redesign as part of my services. If you need a website to be created or redone for you, please reach out to me through ihateuglywebsites.com to discuss your project and its cost.
