About Megan

Megan Curtis is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing in California who focuses on women's issues alongside common concerns such as stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, and depression. She writes simply and directly, and aims to make therapy approachable for people juggling work, family, and daily responsibilities. Megan emphasizes practical steps and clear conversation to help people move forward.

She favors a person-centered style that starts by listening to each person's story. Megan believes clients know their lives best, and she helps them set goals and try different strategies to reach those goals. Her background includes undergraduate study in personality psychology, biopsychology, and human sexuality, followed by graduate coursework in clinical mental health and neuropsychology.

Megan uses psychoeducation to explain why certain feelings and reactions happen, then works with clients to practice new skills. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is one of her main tools for addressing patterns that keep people feeling stuck. She applies CBT techniques to anxiety, panic, depressive thinking, and trauma-related symptoms.

She aims to build trust early and keep sessions focused and practical. If the match does not feel right, she will assist in finding another therapist who might be a better fit. Megan offers services in English and works from California with six years of clinical experience.

To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule based on the therapist's availability. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Megan often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thought patterns that worsen mood or anxiety. CBT sessions focus on practical exercises, thought tracking, and behavior changes that can be practiced between meetings.

She also uses person-centered methods that begin with listening and reflect back what matters most to each person. That approach helps set goals together and tailor techniques to the individual's needs and values.

Choosing the right approach is a collaboration. The therapist will work with the client to see which methods feel useful and adjust over time based on progress, goals, and personal preference.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make scheduling easier and reduce commute time, which helps people fit sessions into busy days. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed and let people choose whether to use video, audio, or text if those formats are available. Licensed professionals adapt techniques like CBT to work well in remote sessions and help clients practice skills in everyday life.
