Approaches and what to expect from online work
Megan draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. One common approach focuses on building coping skills for anxiety and stress, teaching practical strategies such as breathing, activity planning, and simple cognitive shifts to ease daily overwhelm. Another approach centers on processing grief and loss through narrative work and paced emotional processing to help people make sense of change and find steadier footing.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Megan takes a collaborative stance and asks about your goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped in the past. From there she suggests techniques and adjusts the plan over time so the work matches what you need right now.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They can also allow people to choose whether to be on camera or use fewer video sessions depending on comfort and bandwidth. Discussing these practical details during intake helps tailor a routine that fits everyday life.
