About Megan
Megan Woods is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people handle stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and relationship concerns. She works with adults who are coping with addictive behaviors, mood changes such as bipolar symptoms, attention challenges, and issues tied to identity and intimacy.
Megan aims to make therapy feel like a collaborative, down-to-earth process rather than a list of tasks. Megan brings about 10 years of experience in mental health settings.
How Megan works
She trained in marriage and family therapy and has provided individual and group sessions in offices, as well as in-home visits. That range gives her experience with different ways people like to meet and talk about what matters to them. Her style mixes several approaches so sessions can match what a person needs that day.
Some meetings focus on practical strategies, like building a daily plan or trying new coping skills. Other sessions might use storytelling, reflection, or activities to help people make sense of painful events or relationship patterns. Megan pays attention to everyday details about a person - hobbies, small comforts, and routines - because those things shape how healing happens.
She emphasizes building trust first, then working together toward clearer goals and better day-to-day functioning. People who choose her can expect direct conversation, practical ideas, and space to process hard emotions. She welcomes questions about methods and will adapt sessions to match each person’s pace and preferences.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Megan commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or depression symptoms. CBT is practical and often centers on homework-like steps to try between sessions.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which puts the person’s own goals and pace first. In this approach the therapist listens closely and reflects what they hear so people feel understood and can steer the work toward what matters to them.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Megan will discuss options and adapt techniques based on a person’s goals, preferences, and the issues they bring. That collaborative process helps pick methods that feel useful rather than forced.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is useful for more in-depth conversation and nonverbal cues. Phone can be a simpler option when bandwidth is lower. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when someone prefers typing. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep consistent contact between meetings.
