About Megan
Megan Flanagan is a BACP and NCPS registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. She focuses on trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes. Sessions draw on client-centred and trauma-focused approaches, alongside other methods she integrates to suit a person’s needs.
Megan prioritises the client’s goals and choices in sessions. She works to build a strong working relationship first, then uses practical tools such as psychoeducation and creative activities when helpful. Her practice emphasises clear, collaborative planning so people know what to expect from each meeting.
She has supported people who feel disconnected from themselves after difficult relationships or life changes. Some clients have come after domestic abuse or postnatal depression, while others bring concerns about chronic illness, disability or caregiver stress. She has worked with both men and women who have experienced domestic abuse and with parents experiencing postnatal depression.
Megan speaks from personal experience of recovery from an abusive relationship and from postnatal depression. That background informs how she meets people and explains practical steps in therapy. She also notes the importance of the person’s own commitment and active participation for progress to happen.
Megan works within the ethical frameworks of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society and the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. To begin, a person completes the platform questionnaire and schedules an initial session to discuss goals and how she works.

How her approaches work in online sessions
Client-centred therapy focuses on the person’s experience and preferences. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is said and helps the client set their own goals. This approach suits people wanting collaborative, paced conversations about identity, parenting roles and self-worth.Trauma-focused therapy concentrates on the effects of traumatic experiences and on stabilising symptoms before tackling difficult memories. It uses practical strategies to manage distress and to build skills for day-to-day coping. This approach is commonly used for survivors of abuse and people coping with major life changes.
Megan treats choice of approach as part of the work. She will discuss options with the client and agree on methods that match the person’s needs and preferences. That collaborative planning happens in the first meetings and is reviewed as therapy continues.
Confirm the session formats offered before booking, as they are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around family life, work or health limitations, and it can allow shorter check-ins when time or bandwidth is limited. Registered or accredited professionals commonly use remote sessions to maintain continuity of care while arranging times that suit everyday routines.
