About Megan

Megan Eiselt is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Minnesota who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and life transitions.

Background and approach

With eight years of experience, she centers care on each person's lived experience and strengths, believing clients are the primary authors of their own stories. She frames therapy as a collaborative process that honors courage and invites practical steps toward clearer goals and improved coping.

Her style blends several established methods, including cognitive behavioral approaches that examine patterns of thought and behavior, client-centered practices that emphasize empathy and acceptance, and elements of narrative and mindfulness work to help people reshape meaning and build present-moment skills.

Megan aims to empower clients by supporting skill development, offering perspective shifts, and helping translate insight into everyday choices. Clients who reach out to her can expect an approachable clinician who combines structure with warmth, helping to identify priorities, reduce distress, and strengthen resilience.

Her practice emphasizes pacing that fits each person’s needs and supports steady progress toward more satisfying functioning and well-being.

Approaches in Online Therapy and How They Help

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy and collaboration, offering a supportive environment where clients explore their experiences and values while the therapist reflects and validates those perspectives; this approach is helpful for building self-understanding and emotional safety.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; it often includes practical exercises and skill-building to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and to improve day-to-day functioning.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist partners with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and may draw from different methods to tailor sessions over time. This collaborative style helps ensure the work aligns with what matters most to the client and that techniques are adjusted as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how and when people connect, with options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats can make scheduling easier around work, family, or mobility needs and allow for ongoing support between in-person opportunities. Licensed professionals can use these tools to deliver structured interventions, reflective conversations, and skills practice in ways that fit each client’s life.
