She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strain, or major life changes.

She uses straightforward conversation to help people name their feelings and make small changes that add up. Sessions focus on understanding what matters most to each person and on practical steps to reduce distress.

Background and approach

Meghan blends emotion-focused work with techniques that address thoughts, behavior, and coping skills. Her approach includes Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and shift painful emotional patterns. She also draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to change unhelpful thinking and dialectical behavior skills to manage intense emotions.

For trauma-related concerns she incorporates EMDR and mindfulness practices when appropriate. Meghan often supports people facing parenting stress, blended family issues, caregiving strain, and adoption or foster care concerns. She also helps with eating and body image worries, intimacy questions, substance use, burnout, and life transitions such as divorce or career change.

Sessions are offered in English and are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Meghan works collaboratively to set goals and build skills that fit each person's daily life.

Online support

How Meghan blends emotion work with online therapy

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify core emotions and change patterns that keep them stuck. It focuses on feeling and connection, which can reveal what needs to shift to feel more supported and understood. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical exercises to challenge unhelpful thinking and to build different habits. Dialectical Behavior Therapy adds specific skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance when life feels overwhelming.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Meghan will discuss goals, past experiences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together a plan is created that may blend EFT, CBT, DBT, or trauma-focused tools so the work aligns with each person’s needs and preferences.

Online sessions offer flexibility and more ways to connect. Video calls allow live interaction and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging can be useful for shorter check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between appointments.
