About Megan
Megan Fredrick is a licensed professional counselor in Texas who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, motivation struggles, and substance use concerns. She also supports clients dealing with bipolar symptoms, relationship and intimacy questions, sleep and eating issues, and major life changes.
Megan sees coping with caregiver strain, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related challenges, and career stress among common reasons people reach out. She works from the view that each person knows their own story best.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical steps and on building strengths that already exist. She aims to make room for honest talk while offering tools to reduce symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning. Megan blends straightforward methods such as cognitive behavioral work with client-centered listening.
She also uses mindfulness skills and dialetical behavior strategies to help with emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Motivational interviewing helps when people feel stuck or need support making lasting changes. Clients can expect a collaborative approach where goals and techniques are chosen together.
Megan values clear, manageable steps and practices that transfer into real life. Her style is warm, direct, and focused on what will make daily life better. With 16 years of experience, she draws on a range of practical tools rather than a single method.
Megan offers sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different schedules and needs. She is licensed in Texas as an LPC.
Practical approaches for online support
Client-centered work focuses on listening and understanding each person's priorities. It relies on the client's own goals and strengths, and it helps when someone needs a supportive space to make sense of change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It provides concrete strategies for managing anxiety, depression, and unhelpful patterns by testing beliefs and practicing new behaviors.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches skills for handling intense emotions and improving relationships. It emphasizes distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and clearer communication for those who feel overwhelmed by strong feelings.
Megan treats finding the right approach as a team effort. She will talk with the client about goals and try techniques that fit their needs and preferences. Adjustments are made over time so the work stays practical and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect - video calls for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions when bandwidth is limited, live chat for shorter check-ins, and text messaging for ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work breaks, caregiving routines, or days with unpredictable schedules while still focusing on progress and daily coping skills.
