About Meghan

Meghan Flanagan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Wisconsin with six years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, and the practical pressures of parenting and family life. Meghan also helps people dealing with intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, career concerns, bipolar disorder, and compassion fatigue.

Her approach is straightforward and conversational. She uses methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, narrative work, and solution-focused strategies to help people notice patterns and try different ways of managing problems. Sessions are a place to talk through what is most pressing and to practice small changes that can make daily life easier.

Meghan draws on experience from community and clinical settings to shape sessions that address both immediate problems and longer-standing patterns. She pays attention to attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and communication problems. This helps when dealing with divorce, separation, control issues, guilt, or isolation.

Therapy often includes short, concrete exercises between sessions alongside talking work in the room. Meghan uses existential ideas to look at meaning and values, and trauma-focused tools when safety and emotional regulation are priorities. The focus is on practical steps people can use at home, at work, and in relationships.

Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. Cost varies with location and sessions operate through a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, use the online therapy options button, complete a brief matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

How Meghan’s approaches translate to online sessions

Meghan draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness therapy in session. CBT focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and then testing small changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety or relationship reactivity. Mindfulness methods teach simple attention and breathing practices to lower arousal and improve emotional regulation, which can help with stress, grief, and trauma responses.

Finding the right mix of methods is collaborative. Meghan will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they choose practical steps to try and adjust the plan as needed based on how things go between sessions.
