Background and approach
Meghan combines practical skills with listening. Sessions are direct, honest, and grounded in respect for the person in front of her. Meghan uses parts of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and shift behaviors.
She also draws on narrative approaches to help people reframe their stories. Motivational Interviewing is used to build readiness for change, and psychodynamic ideas help uncover patterns that repeat in relationships. Typical issues she addresses include addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, anger, self-esteem, career stress, compassion fatigue, and coping with life changes.
Additional focuses include body image, caregiver stress, chronic pain and illness, adoption and foster care topics, and kink-informed care when relevant. Her style asks clients to show up and try small steps. Meghan offers a steady guiding hand while following each person’s lead.
She describes the therapeutic space as one where effort is noticed and small gains are celebrated.
Approaches online that focus on change and meaning
Meghan commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT is practical and often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress by breaking problems into manageable steps.She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the conversation on the person's experience. This approach emphasizes listening, empathy, and following the client’s lead to build trust and clarity. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone needs help finding motivation for change; it focuses on exploring ambivalence and strengthening commitment.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of working together. Meghan will discuss options and tailor the approach based on goals, preferences, and how you respond. The first few sessions are often dedicated to figuring out what helps most.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets you have a face-to-face conversation from wherever you are. Phone can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging offer shorter check-ins or ongoing written support between sessions. These options are intended to make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
