Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and learn which values to guide meaningful action. It is useful for managing anxiety, grief, and life transitions by promoting flexibility in how one responds to pain and stress.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns in relationships that developed early in life and shows how those patterns influence present-day intimacy, parenting, and communication. It can be especially helpful for people working through abandonment, adoption and foster care dynamics, blended family issues, and challenges with closeness.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and collaboration, allowing individuals to lead the pace and focus of sessions while the therapist offers support and reflection. This approach helps build self-esteem and supports personal growth across a wide range of concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Megan works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts strategies as therapy unfolds to ensure the best possible fit.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility by allowing sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access licensed professionals from different locations while working toward meaningful change.
