About Megan

Megan Beecham is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with six years of clinical experience. She works with people facing a range of concerns including depression, anxiety, substance use, relationship and family conflict, grief, trauma and feelings of emptiness related to finding purpose.

Background and approach

Megan has provided both individual and group counseling and has experience supporting clients with dual diagnoses and complex presentations such as bipolar disorder and schizoaffective conditions. She favors a person-centered stance that treats clients as the experts on their lives and builds on existing strengths to create practical change.

Megan also draws on evidence-informed methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Emotionally-Focused and client-centered approaches to help people develop new ways of managing symptoms and improving relationships. Her style includes experiential work so clients can try new skills in the moment and see what fits.

Megan aims to meet clients where they are in the process of change and collaborate on goals that improve daily functioning and a sense of fulfillment. She brings prior experience supporting people affected by HIV/AIDS as part of her broader background in care and advocacy.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Megan commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) into her work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression, while ACT emphasizes values-driven action and learning to accept difficult internal experiences to build a more meaningful life. Both approaches can be useful for coping with mood symptoms, stress, relationship challenges, and substance-related concerns.

She also uses client-centered principles to center each person's experience and build on their strengths, creating a collaborative space where the client helps shape which methods are tried. Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist works together with clients to determine what fits their goals, preferences, and day-to-day realities.

Online therapy with Megan is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible access to care. These formats allow sessions to fit work and family schedules, offer different ways to practice skills between sessions, and make it easier to maintain continuity of care when life circumstances change.
