About Megan
Megan Fernandes helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem, and life changes. She supports those coping with trauma, grief, addiction concerns, mood difficulties and parenting challenges. Megan draws on practical tools to help people feel steadier and more able to manage day-to-day demands.
She works in a warm, respectful manner and aims to meet each person where they are. Sessions focus on clear goals and small steps that can change how things feel at home and work.
Background and approach
She uses everyday language and keeps tasks simple so people can try new ways of coping between sessions. Megan brings eight years of direct counselling experience in a range of settings. She has worked with adults and younger people on issues such as anger, motivation, confidence and mood.
Her approach pays attention to cultural and family background when that matters to a person's situation. Her clinical toolkit includes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas, client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural strategies and elements of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy. These are used flexibly to match practical goals rather than fixed rules.
Megan is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She offers work in English and Hindi and takes international clients as needed. If someone is ready to begin, she guides them through each next step so the process feels manageable.
Therapeutic approaches for online support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them. It encourages choosing actions that fit personal values even when emotions are difficult, which can help with anxiety and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand attachment needs and build more supported ways of relating when trust or closeness feel hard.Megan aims to work collaboratively to find the best approach. She will discuss goals, preferences and what has helped or not helped before. Together they choose techniques and pace that suit the person's needs rather than following a single method.
Online sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for longer conversational work and exercises that benefit from visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a shorter break, while live chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins or when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, parenting and travel, and allow the same approaches to be applied across formats.
