About Megumi

Megumi Britt is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Tennessee with 15 years of clinical experience.

Background and approach

She has supported adolescents and adults across a range of concerns including trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship and adjustment issues, relapse prevention for substance use, and challenges related to courts, correctional settings, and residential programs. Her background reflects work with clients facing complex life transitions and practical barriers to change.

Her practice emphasizes a strengths-based, client-centered stance delivered through cognitive behavioral techniques. Megumi aims to help clients identify existing skills and resources they can build on while tailoring conversations and treatment plans to each person’s priorities.

She approaches care with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, avoiding stigmatizing labels while helping people pursue concrete goals. Starting therapy can feel difficult, and Megumi acknowledges that courage is often required to begin.

She offers supportive guidance and practical strategies for coping with stress, managing mood and anxiety, addressing trauma-related concerns, and navigating life changes, with attention to each client’s unique needs and values.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Access

Megumi commonly integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centered techniques into her online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood disorders through practical exercises and skills practice. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration so clients feel heard and their goals shape the direction of care.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and she works collaboratively with clients to decide which strategies fit best based on individual needs, goals, and preferences. Together they adapt methods over time, blending skills training, reflective exploration, and mindfulness when appropriate to match what is most useful for the person.

Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allows flexibility for clients balancing work, family, or other commitments. These options make it easier to attend sessions from different locations and to choose the format that best supports ongoing engagement and progress with a licensed professional.
