About Megan
LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) in New York with 10 years of clinical experience. Megan Bartz works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, depression, and coping with life changes. She also supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, grief, anger, self-esteem struggles, bipolar mood concerns, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Megan's approach draws on client-centered care, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, existential ideas, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing.
Megan practices in both outpatient and inpatient settings and has spent a decade helping people with mental health and substance use concerns. She focuses on building a real therapeutic relationship and listens first to understand each person’s needs. In sessions she emphasizes direct conversation and practical next steps rather than abstract theory.
She uses person-centered methods to stay genuine and offer unconditional positive regard. From Cognitive Behavioral Therapy she borrows techniques that show how thoughts influence feelings and actions, then works with clients to try different ways of thinking and behaving. Mindfulness elements are used to help clients notice patterns in the moment.
Megan also brings existential perspectives that invite people to consider meaning, values, and life direction when they feel stuck. Motivational interviewing helps when change feels uncertain, by exploring ambivalence and building momentum for practical steps. Her stated priority is listening and working collaboratively toward goals the client identifies.
People seeking services in New York should confirm current session arrangements before scheduling. The first steps include completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling an initial session through the practice flow.

How her approaches work in remote care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The therapist stays genuine, offers acceptance, and follows the client's lead to clarify goals and next steps. This approach helps when someone needs someone to be heard and to work out priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses exercises and small experiments to try different thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and patterns that keep repeating.
Motivational Interviewing helps when people feel unsure about change. The therapist explores ambivalence and helps build practical motivation for next steps without pressure.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match methods to their goals, preferences, and what feels manageable. That choice can shift over time as needs change.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and offer alternatives if being on camera is difficult. Licensed professionals can use different tools to support consistent progress while working around everyday schedules.
