How Meghan Uses Evidence-Based Techniques Online
Meghan commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and stress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult feelings without getting stuck, and then commit to actions that match their values.She draws on Motivational Interviewing to support people who feel stuck or unsure about change. This approach uses gentle, guided conversation to build motivation and clarify personal goals. Each method is presented in plain language and adapted to the person's needs and pace.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Meghan works collaboratively with each person to choose or combine techniques that match their goals, preferences, and daily life. Together they check what helps and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues during deeper work, while phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, skill practice, and frequent touchpoints between sessions. These formats make therapy more flexible for busy schedules and for people living outside traditional office areas.
