About Megan

Megan Vaccaro is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) based in Michigan who brings two decades of clinical experience to her work with individuals, couples, and families. She earned her degree from Wayne State University in Detroit in 2000 and has spent her career supporting people facing depression, anxiety, grief and loss, trauma and abuse, parenting and family conflict, and a range of relationship and life-transition challenges.

Megan uses evidence-informed approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify and reframe unhelpful thinking patterns, and dialectical behavior therapy to build mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness skills. She also draws on client-centered and solution-focused techniques that prioritize the client perspective and practical problem solving. LMSW stands for Licensed Master Social Worker and denotes a master level social work license in the state of Michigan.

Megan takes a respectful, nonjudgmental stance that aims to create a comfortable environment for discussing whatever brought someone to therapy. She emphasizes clear communication, collaborative goal setting, and pragmatic strategies to cope with stress, ADHD, relationship difficulties, grief, career concerns, compassion fatigue, and other areas of life where people seek change. Her practice centers on understanding each person s needs and working together to develop tools that support healthier relationships and more satisfying daily life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Megan commonly integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy into online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people identify patterns of thinking that contribute to anxiety, depression, or low self esteem and teaches practical skills to test and reframe those thoughts. Dialectical behavior therapy emphasizes mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness - skills that are useful for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. She also uses client-centered techniques that prioritize listening, empathy, and the client s own goals and values.

Megan approaches the choice of therapeutic methods as a collaborative process. She will work with each person to explore which approaches fit best with their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time as progress is made and circumstances change.

Online therapy with Megan can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals without rearranging daily life, and they allow the therapeutic work - skill building, problem solving, and emotional processing - to continue in a way that fits the client s routine and commitments.
