    About Meghan

    Meghan McCloskey is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida with 12 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and the challenges that come with major life changes. Meghan respects each person's story and looks for strengths to build on during therapy.

    She takes a straightforward, collaborative approach in sessions. Meghan listens first, then helps people set small, practical goals. She uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to break down problems into manageable steps.

    Meghan also uses Client-Centered and Narrative Therapy ideas to help people make sense of their experiences. This can be useful for grief, trauma and abuse, or when someone wants to rewrite how they see themselves. Sessions may include exploring patterns, trying new coping skills, and noticing progress over time.

    Her work addresses addictions, control issues, guilt and shame, and relationship concerns. She also supports parents, women’s issues, young adult concerns, and people dealing with compassion fatigue or career stress. Meghan aims to create a calm space to talk through difficult decisions and painful memories.

    If someone is considering therapy, Meghan encourages a first conversation to clarify goals and next steps. She helps people set realistic expectations and adjusts methods to match what each person needs and prefers.

  2. How Meghan’s Approaches Work Online

    Motivational Interviewing helps people resolve mixed feelings about change by focusing conversation on personal reasons for change and the client’s own values. It can be useful for addictions, ambivalence about life choices, and behavior changes.

    Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful thinking and try small behavioral experiments, which can reduce anxiety and depression symptoms.

    Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and respect for the person’s perspective. The therapist follows the client’s lead, which helps when someone needs space to tell their story and make decisions at their own pace.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Meghan will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adjust methods as needed. The first sessions are often a chance to try different ways of working and see what fits.

    Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow check-ins during work breaks or between other responsibilities. It can also allow sessions without video when bandwidth is limited or a shorter phone check-in is preferred.
