Megan CurtisLPCC

Megan Curtis is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing from California. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and related concerns such as panic attacks, social anxiety, communication problems, control issues, pregnancy and childbirth, and women's issues. Megan writes plainly and listens carefully to understand what matters most to each person who reaches out.

She takes a person-centered stance and aims to meet people where they are. Sessions focus on practical steps and learning skills that can be used between meetings. Megan emphasizes psychoeducation so clients understand why they feel stuck and what changes might help.

Megan uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a core part of her work. CBT helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop new ways of responding to difficult feelings and situations. She combines that with other approaches to tailor care to each person's needs.

Her training included undergraduate study in personality psychology, biopsychology, and human sexuality, followed by graduate coursework in general clinical mental health counseling and neuropsychology. Those studies inform a thoughtful, biologically aware view of mental health.

She communicates in clear, straightforward language and aims to build trust from the first session. Megan is available for Live Chat sessions through the platform noted in her profile, and she will help connect people with another therapist if she is not the right fit.

How evidence-based methods translate to online care

Many of her interventions come from well-researched approaches that teach concrete skills and ways of thinking. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new responses, which can reduce anxiety and lift mood. Another common, evidence-based element is psychoeducation, which explains how stress and emotion work and gives practical exercises to try at home.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She treats therapy as a collaboration and will help figure out which techniques match a person's needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress is made so methods can be adjusted when needed.

If you plan to work online, confirm the session formats before booking to know which options are currently offered. Online care can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce commute time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make sessions possible from different locations. Licensed professionals can deliver the same therapeutic techniques through online sessions when the approach fits the concern and the person's goals.
