How Meghan’s Methods Work Online
Meghan commonly draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when working with clients. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name emotions in relationships and works to shift patterns that cause disconnection.She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people build awareness and calm in the moment, which can reduce reactivity and improve sleep and focus. These approaches are chosen to match the problem at hand rather than applied the same way for everyone.
Finding the best fit is a collaborative process. Meghan listens to each person’s goals and preferences and then suggests approaches to try. Together they track what helps and adjust the plan over time so therapy stays useful and practical.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people work face to face from wherever they are. Phone sessions can fit a quick check-in or work better when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging offer brief, flexible contact for skill practice and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options aim to make care easier to attend and fit into a busy life.
