Therapeutic Approaches and Accessible Online Care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the person s own goals and values guide the work. This approach supports self-exploration and relationship-focused growth, and it is useful for people looking to deepen self-understanding and improve personal or relational functioning.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors into more adaptive patterns. CBT is practical and skills-based, and it is often used to address stress, anxiety, depression, and challenges that interfere with daily functioning.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-informed approach that can help process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity. It is often chosen by people who are working through traumatic experiences and seeking relief from persistent distress.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Megan collaborates with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She works alongside clients to adapt techniques over time so the plan stays aligned with progress and changing priorities.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit support into busy lives and to access licensed professionals from different locations. These options help reduce travel time, increase scheduling choices, and provide consistent access to care in a way that matches each person s day-to-day needs.
