Nice to meet you!

Hi, I’m Meghan Maynard — a psychotherapist, educator, and founder of The Elara Institute.

For over a decade, I’ve supported children, families, and professionals navigating trauma, neurodivergence, and the complex beauty of human relationships. Through The Elara Institute, I offer coaching, consulting, and training rooted in attachment science, interpersonal neurobiology, and the belief that wellness happens in connection.

Whether you're a parent, a therapist, or someone breaking intergenerational cycles — I’m here to walk alongside you with tools that are both evidence-informed and heart-centered.
