About Megan

Megan Fredrick is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 16 years of professional experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, substance use, bipolar disorder, and the difficulties that come with life changes. She also supports people facing motivation struggles, sleep and eating concerns, caregiving stress, and intimacy-related issues.

Megan approaches therapy from a perspective that centers the person's own story and strengths. She treats clients as the experts on their lives and uses that knowledge to guide practical steps forward. Sessions are collaborative and focused on clear goals rather than abstract labels.

Her work draws on client-centered therapy to make the conversation practical and respectful. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to identify thinking patterns that keep problems going, and dialectical behavior therapy skills to build emotional regulation and distress tolerance. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are other tools she brings to support change.

In a session with Megan, people can expect straightforward conversation about what they are facing. She listens for what is working and what gets in the way, then suggests skills and small experiments to try between meetings. The emphasis is on usable tools and steady progress.

Megan has experience with additional concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, adoption and foster care, codependency, chronic illness and pain, and neurodiversity-related challenges like ADHD. Her practice in Texas focuses on helping adults navigate these overlapping difficulties.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the client can name what matters most. In online work this means the therapist emphasizes clear conversations, asking practical questions and checking in about what is helping or hindering progress.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online sessions can be used to notice unhelpful thinking, practice alternative responses, and assign short skill-building exercises to try between meetings. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) offers specific skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can be taught and practiced in-session and rehearsed afterward.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit the person's needs, and adjust the plan based on what works. That process helps narrow down whether CBT, DBT, mindfulness, or motivational techniques make the most sense.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around work, caregiving, or travel, and it can be adapted for shorter check-ins or longer skill-focused meetings depending on what a person needs.
