She focuses on helping adults manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, relationship and family concerns, and coping with life changes.

How Megan’s Approaches Work Online
Megan uses client-centered therapy to orient sessions around the client's priorities and values. This approach focuses on listening, clarifying what matters most, and shaping sessions around the client's goals and pace.She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to teach concrete strategies for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and communication. DBT-style tools can help when strong emotions or conflict get in the way of daily life. Mindfulness therapy is used to build present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity, which often helps with anxiety and stress-related patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most useful based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That conversation can begin in early sessions and change over time as progress is made.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, allow for quieter surroundings, or enable check-ins during a break at work. Licensed professionals can guide how to adapt the therapeutic techniques to an online setting so skills practice and narrative work translate into daily life.
