Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Care

CBT focuses on identifying and challenging distorted thoughts and replacing them with more helpful thinking patterns - an approach that can reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms and improve daily functioning. DBT emphasizes mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, equipping people with skills to manage overwhelming emotions and improve relationships. She also practices client-centered techniques that prioritize listening, empathy, and the client's own goals, supporting growth through a respectful, collaborative relationship.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Megan works together with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, preferences, and goals, adjusting strategies over time as progress and challenges emerge. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy stays relevant and practical.
Online sessions - whether by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - offer flexibility and access that can make consistent care easier to maintain alongside work, family, and other commitments. These formats allow licensed professionals to deliver structured therapy, teach coping skills, and support problem solving in ways that fit a client's schedule and daily life.
