About Megan

Megan Fredrick is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 16 years of clinical experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and substance use concerns.

Background and approach

She works with clients navigating life transitions, motivation barriers, bipolar and psychosis-related challenges, and relationship or intimacy-related struggles, drawing on a broad set of therapeutic tools to address both immediate symptoms and longer-term patterns. Her approach centers on collaboration and respect for each person’s unique story.

Megan emphasizes the client’s strengths and capacity for change, combining evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness practices, client-centered techniques, and motivational interviewing to match interventions to individual needs. She frames therapy as a partnership that honors the client as the expert in their own life while offering structure, skills, and encouragement.

Clients can expect a supportive, pragmatic style that balances skill-building with exploration of underlying issues like attachment, codependency, body image, caregiver stress, and co-occurring health concerns. Megan aims to empower people to take brave steps toward greater wellbeing and more fulfilling patterns in daily life.

Practical approaches for online skill-building and growth

Many clients benefit from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and teaches concrete skills to shift mood and behavior. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating concerns, and motivation challenges. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and a nonjudgmental stance so people feel heard and supported while exploring their goals. This approach is helpful for building self-esteem, managing life changes, and increasing self-understanding.

Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to determine which approaches fit their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring to sessions, adjusting strategies over time based on progress and feedback.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to access care from home or work. These options allow licensed professionals to teach skills, track homework, and maintain continuity of care even when in-person visits are impractical, supporting steady progress toward stated goals.
