About Megan
Megan Lewis is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who brings eight years of experience supporting people through hard times. She earned a Master of Social Work and has worked in office settings, in homes, and through online care. Megan focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma-related concerns.
Her work leans on practical, goal-focused methods that keep the person’s priorities central. She draws on Client-Centered and Solution-Focused approaches to help people clarify what matters and find steps forward.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral techniques are used to reshape thoughts and behaviors that cause distress. Megan often helps with family-related concerns and issues connected to adoption and foster care. She also supports people dealing with anger, self-esteem struggles, mood disorders, dissociation, and the lasting effects of sexual assault and abuse.
Shorter-term goals and longer-term healing are both part of her practice. In sessions she aims to be open-minded and non-judgmental. Conversations are collaborative - the person’s voice guides the work while she offers tools, feedback, and structure.
She emphasizes strengths and practical strategies that can be used between sessions. Megan provides sessions in English and works with people across Missouri. She uses a mix of video calls, phone, live chat, and text messaging to fit different schedules and needs.
Her approach is straightforward and focused on helping people make concrete changes.
Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Many of Megans sessions use Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship so the person feels understood. This approach helps when someone needs time to tell their story and decide what matters most to them.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT offers hands-on tools for managing anxiety, depression, and unhelpful thinking patterns. For trauma-related work she draws on Trauma-Focused methods and EMDR to address strong emotional reactions and memories in a paced way.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, past experiences, and preferences, and adapt the plan as progress is made. This keeps the work collaborative and tailored to what the person needs.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people use visual cues and a fuller conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is low, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and texting supports brief daily or between-session notes. These options help fit therapy around work, school, or caregiving and let people try different formats to see what works best.
