Background and approach

She encourages clients to name small changes that feel doable between sessions. Megan uses a mix of evidence-based therapeutic techniques to match individual needs. That can mean strategies to reduce panic, tools for managing social anxiety, or ways to process traumatic events and grief.

She adapts methods to fit where someone is in their life. Many people come for help with life transitions, low confidence, caregiver strain, or loneliness. Megan also supports those wrestling with guilt, forgiveness, or questions about life purpose.

Sessions aim to build coping skills and increase everyday functioning. Her process is collaborative: she helps people set goals, tracks progress, and adjusts the plan as needed. She offers encouragement and practical exercises alongside conversation.

The overall focus is on steady improvement and more satisfying daily life.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Evidence-based techniques Megan commonly draws on include practical skills training and trauma-informed talk work. Skills training teaches step-by-step strategies for managing panic attacks, reducing social anxiety, and handling daily stress. Trauma-informed talk work helps people make sense of difficult events and reduce the emotional charge those memories carry.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. Megan will collaborate with each person to identify goals, try methods that fit their situation, and adjust those methods over time. Clients have a voice in which techniques feel most helpful.

Online therapy here is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls let you work face-to-face when that matters. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is low or when you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text sessions are good for brief check-ins, homework support, or when a flexible schedule helps you fit therapy into a busy day.
