About Megan

Megan Mackety is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) with 15 years of professional experience offering compassionate, practical support for people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma, anger, low self-esteem, and ADHD. She centers her work on building connection and trust so clients feel heard as they explore the patterns and experiences that affect their well-being. Megan approaches therapy as a collaborative process, acting as a sounding board while recognizing that each person is the expert on their own life.

Her practice integrates cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and solution-focused strategies to create individualized plans that fit each client’s goals and daily routines. These methods are used to address overwhelming sadness or worry, ease symptoms of anxiety and depression, and develop concrete skills for managing emotions and stress. When past trauma, anger, resentment, or self-esteem challenges are present, Megan helps clients identify and work through those factors to move toward greater resilience.

Megan aims to support and empower clients throughout their journey, offering steady guidance and practical tools while honoring each person’s pace and priorities. Her approach emphasizes trust, respect, and actionable strategies that make sense in the context of a client’s life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client’s goals guide the work. This approach helps people explore their feelings and values while the therapist offers empathy and support to strengthen self-understanding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is a skills-based approach that helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is often useful for anxiety, mood concerns, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and grounding practices to help manage stress and increase awareness of thoughts and emotions in the present moment.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Megan collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors interventions over time so therapy remains practical and aligned with what the client hopes to achieve.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility to connect from home, work, or while traveling. These formats can make it easier to schedule sessions, maintain continuity during life changes, and access consistent support without added travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt techniques used in person to these remote formats, ensuring clients can pursue meaningful progress in ways that suit their routines.
