Her tone is warm and direct and she aims to make therapy feel practical and reachable.

She blends several evidence-based approaches to fit each person's needs.

In sessions she asks practical questions that encourage reflection and action. People can expect a collaborative process that balances skill building with attention to personal values and relationships. The pace and focus are set together, with an emphasis on what will be most useful day to day.

How Meghan’s approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed steps toward them while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with anxiety, depression, chronic illness adjustment, and motivation-related issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, behaviors, and feelings interact; it uses practical exercises and skill-building to reduce symptoms like anxiety, low mood, and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early and current relationships shape reactions and closeness; it can be useful for intimacy, relationship, and caregiving concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best, based on goals, preferences, and what feels useful in early sessions. That collaborative process helps shape a plan that balances skills practice with attention to values and relationships.

Many people find online therapy helps fit sessions into a busy week, reduces travel time, and makes short check-ins easier to schedule. Online work also supports practicing skills in everyday settings and keeping momentum between appointments. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and attachment-focused work to an online setting through guided exercises, worksheets, and conversation tailored to each person's needs.
