Therapy with Megan is collaborative and skills-oriented; she treats clients as partners in the therapeutic process and supports them in building strategies that fit their lives.

Integrating evidence-based approaches in online care



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve functioning. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties, and many stress-related concerns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes noticing thoughts and feelings without getting entangled in them, clarifying values, and taking committed action toward a meaningful life, which can help with chronic pain, mood challenges, and life transitions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and nonreactive attention to internal experience, supporting emotion regulation and stress reduction.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process; the therapist will work collaboratively with clients to select and adapt techniques based on their goals, preferences, and circumstances. Sessions often mix elements from different modalities so interventions match what a client needs in the moment and over time.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varying schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it possible to maintain continuity of care across busy lives, allowing clients to access evidence-informed interventions and practical skills work from home or another convenient location.
