About Meghan
Meghan Flanagan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with six years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, and coping with life changes. Meghan also lists work around guilt and shame, self-esteem, intimacy issues, and compassion fatigue.
Her approach is straightforward and conversational. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking. Narrative techniques are used to separate a person’s story from the labels they carry. Mindfulness practices help slow down strong feelings so they can be described and examined rather than acted on immediately.
Meghan says she values hearing a person’s story and treating each concern seriously. Sessions typically involve talking through recent events, identifying patterns, and trying small experiments between meetings. She explains ideas plainly and checks in about what is most useful as work proceeds.
Clients bring a range of issues, including work or career stress, relationship and intimacy challenges, attachment and abandonment worries, body image and identity questions, and the effects of chronic illness or caregiver strain. She also lists focus areas such as forgiveness, isolation, and men’s midlife concerns.
People who choose her can expect a collaborative process that blends short-term problem-solving with deeper reflection. Meghan helps clarify goals, offers practical strategies, and revisits the plan if something isn’t working. The emphasis is on manageable steps rather than sweeping fixes.
How her approaches translate to online work
Meghan uses cognitive behavioral methods and mindfulness tools that adapt well to remote sessions. CBT focuses on spotting thought patterns and testing them with small experiments, which can be planned in a session and practiced between meetings. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to help notice strong feelings without immediately reacting, useful for anxiety, grief, and shame.She also draws on narrative therapy to help people tell and reframe their stories. Narrative work asks what role a problem plays in a person’s life and looks for alternative storylines that reduce self-blame. Deciding which approach to emphasize is collaborative; she will work with each person to match methods to their goals and what feels most helpful in practice.
