CINCINNATI, OHIO-BASED THERAPY FOR CHILDREN AND ADULTS
We’re here to help you heal, grow, and thrive at Conscious Roots Counseling.
At Conscious Roots Counseling, we specialize in supporting parents and children — through play therapy for kids, parenting collaboration sessions, and trauma-informed therapy for parents.
Megan works directly with kids, using play therapy to help them process big feelings and big changes — and also offers parent-only sessions to collaborate on strategies for supporting your child at home.
Jenny works with parents individually, using Brainspotting and EMDR to help them process their own past so it doesn't quietly repeat itself in how they parent.
We don't offer family or couples therapy — each person gets their own dedicated space to do this work.
Ultimately, we hope to work ourselves out of a job—not because we don’t love what we do, but because we want to help you move forward feeling more free, resilient, and confident in managing your own mental health.
When you’ve processed your past experiences and learned new support strategies, you can ride life’s waves of discomfort without getting pulled under.
And after you’ve unearthed the roots of the weeds that have been weighing you down, you have so much more room in your life to grow flowers.
Why choose Conscious Roots?
Here’s our approach to therapy, and our promise to you.
-
WE BELIEVE IN BEING GENUINE.
It’s human nature to want to belong, to feel safe, and to be seen and heard. With us, you’re not just “a client” or a diagnosis—we’re all real humans with unique stories and experiences, and we commit to meeting you with sincerity and realness.
-
WE KEEP IT HONEST.
We’ll never make simplistic promises that tending to your mental health is easy—there’s room to keep it real with us. We always do our best to be transparent with you, especially around things like what to expect or how out-of-network insurance works, so you’re never left guessing.
-
AUTHENTICITY IS WELCOME HERE.
Therapy only really works if you like and trust your therapist, so we do our part to create a space where you can come as you are and accept your personal, unique, almost-always-messy journey of self-discovery and growth.
Healing doesn’t always happen in a straight line, and here, you have full permission to be imperfect.

Megan Niehauser, LPCC, RPT™
PLAY THERAPY FOR CHILDREN & PARENT COLLABORATION
Megan works with children ages 3–12 who are struggling with big feelings, big behaviors, and/or big changes — including anxiety, depression, challenging experiences, grief, and anger management. She uses play therapy, both directive and non-directive, to meet kids where they are. Megan is a Certified Synergetic Play Therapist and completed The Baffling Behavior Training Institute's Immersion Program for Professionals, developed byRobyn Gobbel.
Megan also works closely with parents. For families whose children are in play therapy with her, she offers regular parent collaboration sessions to share updates and practical strategies for home. She also offers standalone parent collaboration for parents who want their own space to understand their child's nervous system and build stronger connection — particularly parents of kids with intense emotions, challenging behaviors, ADHD, trauma, or sensory differences. Her approach is rooted in relational neuroscience and attachment science, helping parents move from survival mode to genuine connection.
