About Megan
Megan King offers calm, steady support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or low mood. She writes simply and listens closely, helping clients talk through difficult feelings and decide what matters to them. Her approach is warm and non-judgemental, aimed at practical next steps rather than quick fixes.
Megan is a registered member of the BACP, which reflects her commitment to professional practice. She describes herself as a pluralistic counsellor, which means she draws on a range of therapies to fit each person.
Background and approach
Sessions often focus on what the client wants to change and how to get there. In sessions Megan uses plain language and short, focused conversations. She may work on breathing and grounding for anxiety, thought patterns that feed depression, or steps to improve communication in relationships.
She also supports people dealing with trauma, difficulties around attachment, and challenges linked to identity and sexuality. Megan has three years' experience working with a variety of concerns, including stress, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and issues affecting LGBT people. Additional areas she helps with include body image, eating-related concerns, codependency and emptiness.
She also addresses more specific themes such as BDSM and kink, autism and attachment difficulties. Her style is collaborative - she listens first and then suggests options. Practical tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy are combined with an exploration of life meaning when that feels relevant.
If a different direction seems better, she adapts the plan to suit the client.
Approaches you might use in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, often shortened to ACT, helps people clarify their values and take small steps towards them while learning to sit with difficult thoughts. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce distress and improve mood.Megan treats approach selection as a shared process. She will listen to your concerns, discuss how different methods could help, and adapt the plan as you go. The aim is to find a combination of techniques and conversations that feel useful and realistic for your life.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you see facial cues and use visual worksheets, while phone sessions can be shorter and fit around work breaks. Live chat and text sessions suit quick check-ins or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it easier to maintain regular sessions, try different formats, and keep therapy working around everyday commitments.
