Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Megan Rockwood works with several therapeutic approaches that translate well to remote sessions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathy, unconditional positive regard, and supporting a person’s own capacity for growth - it is often used for relationship concerns, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, combines skills training in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to help people manage intense emotions and reduce patterns of emotional dysregulation. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and grounding techniques that can reduce anxiety, improve focus, and support coping with trauma-related symptoms.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Megan collaborates with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process helps tailor interventions and decide whether to emphasize skills work, reflective exploration, or mindfulness practices.

Online therapy with Megan can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules, varied energy levels, and geographic distance. Working remotely enables ongoing access to licensed professionals and therapists while providing multiple ways to engage that match an individual’s comfort and practical needs.
