About Megan

Megan Young is an LMHC based in Florida who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, and challenges to self-esteem while navigating career concerns and major life changes.

Background and approach

She also works with individuals experiencing compassion fatigue and addresses additional areas such as fertility issues, guilt and shame, post-traumatic stress, self-love, and women's issues. With four years of clinical experience, she aims to guide clients toward stronger coping skills and renewed resilience.

Her approach blends practical, evidence-informed strategies with compassion and collaboration. She incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), EMDR, and Motivational Interviewing to tailor care to each person’s needs.

Sessions emphasize skill building, clarifying values, and processing difficult memories when relevant, all while supporting clients in discovering more self-compassion. Megan offers flexible session options and works with clients to set realistic goals and measurable steps.

She seeks to create a respectful therapeutic relationship where clients feel heard and supported as they work through transitions and regain a sense of agency in their lives.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Care

Many clients benefit from learning practical skills through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying and reshaping unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve coping. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy complements that work by helping people clarify their values and build psychological flexibility through mindfulness and committed action. EMDR offers another option for processing traumatic memories when past events are contributing to current distress and symptoms.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each client to explore which methods feel most appropriate for their goals, adjusting strategies as needed and inviting client input at every step so care aligns with personal preferences and needs.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and easier access to care. These formats allow clients to fit therapy into busy schedules, continue treatment through life transitions, and use the communication style that feels most comfortable while working toward meaningful change.
