Meg Sheldon, LCSW

Meg Sheldon has a passion for working with young people and their families. She endeavors to provide a supportive environment that will help stabilize families and allow them space to explore their patterns (both positive and negative) and to assist each family member as they work to create new family habits. Meg works collaboratively with her clients to identify strengths and patterns of resilience. She approaches each client or client family with an open mind and a readiness to apply a variety of therapeutic approaches to suit the family’s needs. As a Parent Coach for Wonder, Meg loves working with her teammates to help families build positive solutions for the future.

Meg developed her passion for systemic family therapy in her early career as a therapist in London, England, where she lived for five years. In her work at a London family support center, she found the opportunity to dig deeply into family systems as she worked to strengthen and improve their connections. With her colleagues, she spent two years studying and practicing with Kensington Consultation Center where she earned a Certificate in Systemic Family Therapy. From this time, she knew she wanted to focus on family systems at the heart of her therapeutic practice.

Meg has a passion for learning, nature, family time, and travel (even backpacking around the world for six months!). She happily resides in her hometown in Atlanta where she feels lucky to be close to her parents and sister as she raises her family. Meg and her husband have two children and a two beloved dogs. Parenting has enriched her wisdom (and humility!) as a therapist over the last 12 years. In her free time, Meg has been the board chair for a community recreation soccer program for 5 years. She promoted not just a fun place for children to develop and enjoy playing soccer, but also a positive environment for parents and adult mentors to enrich children’s lives through the sport. Meg has had the pleasure of coaching youth soccer for 6 years. In addition, she has also volunteered in several different community agencies where she enjoyed donating her time and skills as a therapist.

Meg is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). She earned her bachelor’s degree in Social Work and Certificate in Women’s Studies as well as her master’s degree in Clinical Social Work from The University of Georgia.
