About Megan
Megan Lancaster is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) based in Maine with ten years of clinical experience. She focuses on common concerns like stress and anxiety and helps people facing depression, trauma and relationship problems. Her approach centers on practical steps people can use right away.
Megan sees clients as the experts in their own lives. She listens first, then helps people notice strengths they already have. From there she works with each person to set clear, achievable goals and build skills to reach them.
Background and approach
Sessions often include learning new ways to manage strong emotions and reduce worry. She uses tools to improve communication, handle life changes, and address sleep or motivation struggles. For people dealing with grief, addiction, or mood shifts, she offers a steady, organized way forward.
Megan blends practical strategies with mindful awareness and collaborative problem solving. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques alongside client-centered conversations and motivational interviewing. This mix helps people change unhelpful thoughts, cope with panic or obsessive worries, and build more balanced routines.
Her work is straightforward and paced to each person. She aims to make therapy feel useful from the start. The focus is on small, usable steps that fit day-to-day life while supporting longer-term change.
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting working relationship so people feel heard and respected. It helps when someone wants a supportive space to make sense of feelings and explore next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical steps to spot and change thoughts and behaviors that keep anxiety or depression active. It is useful for panic, obsessive thinking, and improving daily routines.Finding the right fit is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose approaches that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That might mean leaning more on CBT skills for worry, using DBT strategies for intense emotions, or staying largely client-centered while introducing mindfulness practices. The plan changes as progress is made and priorities shift.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people work face to face from wherever they are, phone calls use less bandwidth and can fit a work break, live chat or text messages work well for quick check-ins or shorter exchanges. These options make it easier to keep regular momentum and to use therapy in real-life moments when skills are needed most.
