Hey ya'll, here's my story!
Megan Kennedy, LMSW
As a dedicated mental health therapist, I am committed to supporting individuals on their journey to emotional well-being. With a compassionate approach and a focus on understanding your unique experiences, I am a safe space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings. Together, we will work towards healing, growth, building resiliency, and empowering you to lead a fulfilling life. Your mental health matters, and I am here to help you navigate the path forward.
I received my Bachelors in Social Work from Siena Heights University (Class of 2018) and went on to receive my Masters in Social Work from Michigan State University (Class of 2019). Since that time, I have had a diverse career servicing children and adolescents. I started my career as a Children's waiver program case manager at Macomb Oakland Regional Center in 2019. In this position, I was able to provide outpatient services to children with disabilities. From there, I transitioned to a private practice setting at North Oakland Family Counseling and was able to provide direct mental health counseling services. Beginning in 2021, I transitioned to Rise Counseling Services and continued to serve clients individual need through individual sessions. In that setting, I also provided family counseling and couple counseling as needed.
Throughout my various positions and clinical knowledge, I have strengthened my skills and commitment to the evidence-based approaches of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and a Person Centered Focus. These practice modalities are not only approaches that I am deeply passionate about but have also witnessed the long term benefits of, therefore, have made this the focus of my practice at Sannyasa.
Outside of being a therapist, I enjoy reading psychological thrillers, binging reality T.V. shows, exploring new coffee shops and cafe's in the metro Detroit area, and crafting. I love all animals, and I have a pet fish named 'dog' and a tortoise named 'fig'. I look forward to exploring your interests and hobbies, too!

Sannyasa is a Sanskrit word that means "purification of everything" or "renunciation". It is a spiritual path in Hinduism that requires giving up material desires and worldly attachments in order to pursue liberation. Sanyasi, "a person living in Truth," is one who is full of unconditional love & without hate for oneself or others. A true Sanyasi never disowns anyone, but accepts everyone as one's own - without any expectations. Realizing that attachment is the reason for pain, they heal all painful relationships and strengthen there relationship within. This message means a great deal to me, and is my hope to help clients find their own 'Sannyasa.'
