She brings three years of clinical experience and a practical, action-oriented style to sessions.

How Megan works

That approach aims to make difficult emotions easier to carry and daily life more manageable. Her background includes time working with people in varied settings, including those experiencing homelessness, veterans, and perinatal clients facing pregnancy or baby loss. Megan has also supported parents across different family structures and older adults encountering life transitions.

She has experience with foster and adoptive parents as well as biological and blended family situations. That work informs her focus on attachment, abandonment, and family of origin issues when they show up in day-to-day relationships. Megan uses several therapeutic approaches to match each person’s needs.

She draws on methods that include acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-focused work, and cognitive behavioral strategies. Together with clients she sets goals and chooses practical steps to reduce stress, build self-esteem, and address parenting or career concerns.

Online support options

Online approaches that meet you where you are

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that match your values to build a meaningful life. It can help with grief, anxiety, and navigating big life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationship patterns shape expectations and emotions; it is useful for intimacy-related issues, abandonment concerns, and family-of-origin work. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience and priorities, offering empathy and reflective listening so clients feel heard while they sort out goals and next steps.

Megan treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then suggest methods that fit those needs. Together they check in and adjust the plan as progress and challenges arise.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you use visual cues for deeper conversation. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in works better. Live chat and text-based messaging allow ongoing support between sessions and can fit into busy days or work breaks. These options make it easier to schedule consistent care without long commutes, while keeping the focus on the work you want to do.
