Approaches and flexibility in online therapy

Megan draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening and responding to each person's experience so the therapy follows the client's pace and priorities. This approach is useful for building trust and exploring personal goals. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients notice and change patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to symptoms like anxiety or low mood. CBT is often practical and skill-focused, useful for problem solving and symptom reduction. When appropriate, Megan incorporates Motivational Interviewing to support clients who are ambivalent about change - this method helps people clarify their own motivations and move toward actionable steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Megan collaborates with clients to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts strategies over time as progress is made. The process is guided by the client's priorities and informed by clinical judgment.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for accessibility and scheduling. Video calls and phone sessions allow for real-time conversation similar to in-person meetings, while live chat and text-based messaging offer additional flexibility for shorter check-ins or when synchronous sessions are difficult. These options help clients maintain continuity of care and integrate therapy into busy or changing lives.
