About Megan
Megan Beecham is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and relationship strain. She writes plainly and listens first, so clients can tell their story and set practical goals together. Her style centers on respect for each person’s experience and strengths.
With six years of counseling experience, Megan has worked in both group and individual settings. She has supported people dealing with mood disorders, substance use, trauma, family of origin issues, and feelings of emptiness or loss of purpose.
Background and approach
Earlier in her career she also worked with people and their partners affected by HIV/AIDS. Megan blends Narrative Therapy with client-centered care to help people reframe difficult stories about themselves. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) strategies when useful to shift unhelpful thoughts and build coping skills.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills may be introduced for emotional regulation and distress tolerance. In sessions she encourages experiential work so clients can practice new ways of coping in the moment. That means talking through real situations, trying small exercises, and reflecting on what felt useful.
The emphasis is on practical steps clients can take between sessions. Megan works with adults in Louisiana and conducts therapy in English. She focuses on helping people find meaning, regain balance after big life changes, and rebuild connection to themselves and others.

Approaches that guide online counseling
Many people find Narrative Therapy helpful for making sense of painful or confusing life events by separating the person from the problem and looking for alternate storylines. It can be useful for relationship strain, family of origin issues, feelings of emptiness, and grief. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches practical ways to notice difficult thoughts and feelings while taking values-based actions. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Client-centered therapy focuses on empathy, validation, and meeting each person where they are, supporting self-directed growth and decision making.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Megan collaborates with each client to identify which methods feel most helpful. She listens to goals and preferences, then suggests options and adjusts over time so the plan fits the person's life and needs.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and practice skills in real time. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option or easier to schedule during a busy day. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins and ongoing support between longer sessions. These formats provide flexibility so therapy can fit work, caregiving, and other daily demands.
