About Megan

Megan Eiselt is a licensed clinical social worker with eight years of experience helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, or major life changes. She meets each person where they are and focuses on practical steps that can reduce daily strain and restore a sense of control. Her style centers on listening first and building on a person's strengths.

Megan believes clients are the experts on their own lives. She uses that perspective to shape conversations that feel useful and grounded. Sessions tend to focus on clear goals and small, doable changes that add up over time. She aims to make therapy a place for real problem solving, not only reflection.

Her background includes a range of clinical approaches that let her adapt to different needs. Megan draws from client-centered and narrative methods to honor each person’s story. She also uses cognitive behavioral strategies and mindfulness practices to address unhelpful thinking and stress reactions.

People often come to Megan for help with relationships, parenting strain, sleep problems, substance concerns, workplace stress, or attention and mood issues such as ADHD and bipolar symptoms. She also supports those coping with grief, compassion fatigue, or first responder stress.

In sessions she emphasizes collaboration, clear explanations, and practical exercises to try between meetings. To begin, prospective clients are asked to use the site’s Start Therapy process so they can complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

Step 3

Approaches and how online work can fit into care

Megan uses a mix of client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people manage stress and change. Client-centered Therapy centers conversations on the person's experience and strengths so the therapist follows the client's lead. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing concrete skills to change behavior and mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Megan will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most useful. That means trying different tools and checking in about what helps and what needs adjustment.

If you are considering online appointments, confirm the current session options before booking. Online care can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in might work during a lunch break, or a phone option can require less bandwidth than video. The emphasis is on making sessions practical and flexible so therapeutic work can fit around daily responsibilities.
