About Megan

Megan Bettenberg is a Colorado-based licensed professional counselor (LPC) who focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, LGBT concerns, and ADHD. She centers her work on clients' strengths, helping people access their existing resources while building practical coping skills and greater self-awareness.

Background and approach

Her approach aims to support clearer thinking, improved emotion regulation, and more consistent motivation in daily life. With five years of clinical experience, Megan combines client-centered principles with techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to tailor sessions to each person’s needs.

She works collaboratively to identify unhelpful thinking patterns, practice new behavioral strategies, and develop problem-focused skills that fit a client’s lifestyle. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing also inform her work when fostering present-moment awareness and nurturing intrinsic motivation.

Megan designs sessions to be adaptable, focusing on goals such as improved focus, stronger self-regulation, and healthier self-esteem. She invites prospective clients to begin by completing a brief matching questionnaire and scheduling according to her availability, offering multiple remote session formats to accommodate different schedules and preferences.

Integrating evidence-based approaches in online care

Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and collaboration, creating space for clients to explore goals and personal strengths with the therapist acting as a supportive guide. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and related concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for managing intense emotions and patterns that interfere with daily functioning.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and Megan works collaboratively with each person to determine what methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions are tailored over time so techniques that are most helpful are emphasized while other strategies are set aside or revisited as needed.

Online therapy with this practice is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which supports flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain consistency in care, practice skills between appointments, and access support from home or another convenient location.
