About Megan

Megan Bartz is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York who brings a decade of clinical experience to her work.

Background and approach

She has spent more than 10 years supporting people in both outpatient and inpatient settings with a range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, ADHD, bipolar mood challenges, relationship issues, and career questions. Her approach emphasizes seeing each person as a whole, attending to life circumstances as well as symptoms.

Megan practices from a person-centered stance, offering genuine engagement and unconditional positive regard while partnering with clients to identify what brings them hope and motivation for change. She also integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice how thoughts shape feelings and behaviors and to build new, practical patterns of thinking.

Motivational and mindfulness-inflected strategies can be used to strengthen coping skills, improve self-awareness, and support recovery from substance use and compassion fatigue. Throughout, Megan prioritizes listening and collaboration so clients can move toward clearer goals and a more functional daily life.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental stance in which the therapist listens deeply and helps clients explore their values and sources of meaning. This approach is useful for people seeking increased self-understanding, hope, and a collaborative relationship to guide change.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT is often practical and skills-oriented, helping clients develop strategies to reduce anxiety, manage mood symptoms, and alter reactions linked to addiction or stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together; the therapist will collaborate with each client to determine which combination of person-centered support, CBT techniques, mindfulness practices, or motivational strategies best matches their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions to what feels most helpful and attainable.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing clients to engage in care around their schedules and from different locations. These options can make it easier to maintain regular sessions, practice skills between meetings, and access support without added travel time.
