About Megan

Megan Rockwood is a licensed mental health counselor with 15 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping adults manage strong emotions, reduce anxiety, and work through addiction and trauma. Her style is direct, respectful, and rooted in listening first and then planning next steps together.

She draws on client-centered work to make sessions about each person's needs. That means conversations follow the client's priorities and pace. Megan also uses elements of dialectical behavior therapy to teach practical skills for managing intense feelings and reducing risky behaviors.

Background and approach

Mindfulness practices are woven into many sessions to help people notice thoughts and sensations without being swept away by them. Narrative therapy helps clients make sense of their life stories and find new meanings when old patterns no longer serve them. Motivational interviewing supports people who want change but feel stuck or unsure where to begin.

Megan has worked with people facing grief, relationship and family strain, self-esteem struggles, eating concerns, and career stress. She also supports those dealing with bipolar disorder, chronic health problems, and compassion fatigue. Anger and emotional dysregulation are a frequent focus, and she helps people build coping tools they can use outside sessions.

Her background includes involvement in published psychological research before full-time clinical practice. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person's comfort. The aim is steady progress toward clearer thinking, safer choices, and better daily functioning.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on what matters to the client in the moment. The therapist follows each person's lead, asks open questions, and helps clarify goals so sessions stay useful and relevant. This approach helps with motivation and with organizing steps when life feels overwhelming.

Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, emphasizes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication. Online DBT-informed work includes teaching specific techniques and practicing them together so people can use those skills between sessions. Mindfulness therapy trains simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and increase awareness of thoughts and feelings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped in the past. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made, keeping the process collaborative and practical.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for full conversations and skill coaching, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat or text messaging can suit quick check-ins or brief coaching, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make scheduling more flexible and help fit therapy into busy lives.
