Online therapy approaches and how they help
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps people feel heard and supported while they sort through decisions, parenting strain, or relationship stress.Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and examines which parts help and which parts hold them back. This approach can be useful for people working through trauma, grief, shame, or questions about identity.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and tests new ways of thinking and acting. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and anger management.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Megan collaborates with each person to choose or blend techniques that fit their goals and comfort level. She asks about what has helped before and adjusts the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing brief contact between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to use methods that match personal preferences.
