About Megan

Megan Smith works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and addictions using a person-centred, client-focused approach. She draws on seven years of practice and is an NCPS Therapist - Accredited Member (MNCPS Accred).

Megan studied for a Masters degree in person-centred counselling at Chester University. She also holds an undergraduate degree in Psychology that was accredited by the British Psychological Society, and she applies that psychological background in her clinical work.

She has supported people aged 18 to 90 with depression, grief, drug and alcohol problems, and the after-effects of childhood sexual abuse. Her work includes helping with pregnancy trauma, miscarriage, relationship breakdown and intimacy-related issues.

Megan teaches counselling and psychology at Glyndwr University and has developed a short course on counselling techniques. She also completed a short course in online and telephone counselling to extend how she works with clients.

In sessions she uses Client-Centred Therapy and draws on mindfulness practices to help people notice thoughts and feelings without judgement. Her style involves listening closely, reflecting what is said and helping people find their own way forward.

How Megan's approaches work in online counselling

Megan combines Client-Centred Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in her practice. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the client says so people can find their own solutions; it is often used for relationship issues, self-esteem and coping with life changes. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to help with anxiety, stress and intrusive thoughts.

Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist will work with the client to identify needs, goals and personal preferences and then try methods that suit those aims. Sessions can change over time as the client's situation and priorities shift.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work and family commitments, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find it helpful because it lets them access a registered or accredited professional from where they regularly spend time, while keeping appointments simpler to schedule.
