Remote care style and tools
Meagan offers online sessions that combine practical skill building with values-focused reflection. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters most to them and to take manageable steps toward those priorities. That approach emphasizes observing thoughts and choosing actions that align with personal values rather than attempting to eliminate difficult feelings.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns in thinking and behavior that contribute to stress or mood difficulties and to practice alternative responses. Motivational Interviewing is used when change feels uncertain, helping to explore ambivalence and strengthen personal motivation for next steps. Sessions are collaborative and aimed at developing concrete strategies that fit each person’s circumstances.
Online work is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Those options allow Meagan and the person she is working with to select a format that supports regular contact and moment-to-moment coaching as needed.
