Remote sessions and therapeutic approach
Megan uses client-centred therapy to guide remote sessions. This approach emphasizes listening closely to the client's experience, reflecting understanding, and collaborating on goals. In practice it means the pace and focus of sessions are shaped by what the client brings, with the therapist offering empathic presence and support rather than directing the conversation.
She also incorporates mindfulness therapy techniques to help clients build present-moment awareness and practical skills for managing stress and difficult emotions. Mindfulness practices may be introduced in-session and adapted for use between meetings to support coping with anxiety, mood changes, and daily stressors.
These methods suit clients seeking a collaborative, reflective space and those who want skills-oriented practices alongside conversational work. Megan offers remote appointments via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different preferences and needs.
