About Meredith
Meredith McQuagge is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, relationship struggles, or depression. Meredith speaks English and draws on three years of clinical experience to guide practical steps forward.
Meredith is a combat veteran and military spouse who knows firsthand how life’s demands can pile up. She understands what it feels like to be worn out, on edge, or isolated by thoughts that won’t let up.
How Meredith works
Her work emphasizes a nonjudgmental, neurodiversity-affirming stance that encourages clients to show up as they are. Sessions center on clear, evidence-based techniques tailored to each person. Meredith helps clients name patterns, try manageable changes, and practice new skills between sessions.
She frames therapy as a collaborative effort rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription. Her practice includes support for anxiety disorders, obsessive-compulsive concerns, trauma-related symptoms, and addiction-related issues. Meredith also assists people dealing with body image, codependency, communication breakdowns, control issues, grief from separation, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.
Therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Meredith uses these formats to fit help into busy schedules and different comfort levels. To begin, a short matching questionnaire helps pair a person with the right schedule and session style.

Online support options
Evidence-based approaches for online care
Meredith uses several evidence-based techniques that translate well to online formats. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments; it helps with anxiety, depression, and unhelpful behavior patterns. Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) guides gradual, supported facing of feared situations or thoughts to reduce compulsive responses, often used for obsessive-compulsive concerns.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) approaches that teach people to notice difficult thoughts while committing to values-based actions. These methods emphasize skills practice between sessions and concrete steps rather than long explanations. Meredith will work together with each person to decide which approach fits their goals, preferences, and daily life. That decision is collaborative and can shift as needs change.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more accessible. Video calls let therapists and clients use visual cues and interactive tools. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing and want flexible, ongoing communication. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different comfort levels.
