About Megan
Megan Flanagan offers a collaborative, person-focused way of working. She uses Client-Centred Therapy as the foundation of her practice and shapes sessions around each person’s priorities and goals. Megan aims to build a trusting relationship where people feel heard and understood before deciding what to try next.
She combines the human-centred approach with Trauma-Focused Therapy and practical tools when these feel helpful. Techniques may include psychoeducation, elements of cognitive work, and creative activities to make sessions feel relevant. The emphasis is on what the client wants to address and how they prefer to work.
Megan has three years of clinical experience and has supported people facing loss of identity, low self-esteem, depression, and anxiety after life changes. She also has experience with survivors of domestic abuse, postnatal depression among parents, and people living with chronic illness or disability. These areas often overlap, and sessions focus on practical coping and regaining a sense of self.
Her professional memberships are BACP, which is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and NCPS, the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society. She works within the frameworks those organisations set out.
Many clients find the first step hard, and Megan aims to make initial contact reassuring. She invites prospective clients to use the Start Therapy process and complete a short matching questionnaire to arrange sessions that fit their needs.
How her client-centred and trauma-focused approaches work online
Megan uses Client-Centred Therapy to make the relationship central. This approach means the counsellor listens closely and follows what matters most to the person. It helps when someone is unsure of their next step or wants space to find themselves again.She also draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy to address experiences of abuse or distressing events. That approach aims to gently work through the impact of trauma and develop practical ways to manage reactions and triggers.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and agree on a way of working together that fits the client’s goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and may change as therapy progresses.
The practical advantages of online therapy can include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments around parenting, work, or health needs. The biography does not specify which online formats are used, so confirm the available session types before booking.
