About Megan

Megan Mackety is an LMSW with 15 years of clinical experience who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, anger, self-esteem concerns, and ADHD-related challenges.

Background and approach

She emphasizes building connection and trust from the first session so clients feel heard and respected as they explore what matters most to them. Megan approaches therapy with the belief that each person is the expert on their own life and works alongside clients to clarify goals and identify practical steps forward.

Her work blends cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, client-centered listening, and solution-focused strategies to create individualized plans. These tools are used to reduce overwhelming worry, address depressive patterns, and unpack how past trauma, resentment, or self-doubt may be shaping current difficulties.

Megan strives to provide steady support and collaborative problem solving so clients can develop skills that fit their daily routines, strengthen self-compassion, and move toward greater well-being.

Approaches and Online Support for Managing Stress and ADHD

Client-centered therapy focuses on empathic listening and collaboration, helping people feel understood while they identify goals and explore their values. This approach is useful when someone wants a supportive space to process emotions and build a stronger therapeutic relationship.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to notice unhelpful thinking patterns and change behaviors that contribute to stress, anxiety, or mood concerns. CBT can be applied to concrete problems and offers strategies for managing symptoms and improving daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work and will be a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked in the past to shape a plan that fits the client's needs, adapting methods over time as progress is assessed.

Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats can make it easier to access regular support, practice skills between meetings, and stay connected even when life is busy or travel is difficult.
