About Megan
Megan Flanagan is a BACP registered counsellor and a member of the NCPS with three years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with people who are facing trauma and abuse, parenting changes, low self-esteem, depression, and major life adjustments. Megan also lists specific concerns such as abandonment, forgiveness and challenges linked to chronic health conditions.
Megan uses a client-centred style to build a working relationship that reflects each person’s wishes and goals. She combines that humanistic foundation with trauma-focused ideas and practical tools like psychoeducation and cognitive techniques. Creative outlets are sometimes introduced to help people express feelings that are hard to name.
She has experience supporting people after domestic abuse and with postnatal depression among parents, and she has worked with clients managing chronic illness and disability. Megan notes she has seen both men and women following abuse and offers help with the effects of those experiences on daily life and sense of self.
Megan has also drawn on her own experiences of an abusive relationship and postnatal depression in how she practices, and she emphasises that change needs the client’s commitment as well as the counsellor’s support. Her approach values clear goals and practical work alongside listening.
People can expect conversations that focus on what they want to achieve and on small, workable steps. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options and the best way to begin a first appointment.
How her approaches translate to online work
Megan draws on Client-Centred Therapy which focuses on listening, reflecting and helping people identify their own goals. This approach suits concerns about self-esteem, parenting roles and the relational effects of trauma by prioritising the client’s perspective.She also uses Trauma-Focused Therapy to address the impact of abuse and other distressing events. This involves grounding practical techniques and pacing to help people process painful memories and reduce intense reactions over time.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Megan will discuss options and decide with the client which combination of listening, practical skills and trauma-focused techniques fits their needs and preferences. That decision is reviewed as therapy progresses.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking as the biography does not list them explicitly. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel for appointments. Registered or accredited professionals offering online work often find these practical arrangements help people keep therapy consistent alongside other commitments.
