Together they set small, doable goals and try out new ways of coping between meetings. Megan draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to help shift unhelpful thinking. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and act on them.
Client-centered therapy informs the way she builds a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship. Her approach is straightforward and task-oriented while staying warm and respectful. People meet via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Therapeutic approaches delivered online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify their values and take meaningful action even when feelings are difficult. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and decisions about life direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to reduce unhelpful thinking and build healthier habits. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens closely and follows the client's pace.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels useful. Decisions about which methods to try come from collaboration and small experiments to see what helps.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different schedules and needs. Video is useful for a full session experience, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat and text let people check in between meetings or fit a short session into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or other commitments.
