About Megan
Megan Flanagan practises a human-centred style of therapy that starts with building a trusting relationship. She makes space for each person to talk about what matters to them and shapes sessions around their goals. Megan is named in the first person in her bio and holds BACP and NCPS credentials, which are shown here as supplied.
Megan focuses on trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, low self esteem, depression and coping with life changes.
Background and approach
She also helps people dealing with abandonment, communication problems, control issues and the stresses of caregiving. Her work includes supporting those affected by chronic pain, illness or disability and people navigating separation or divorce. Her approach blends client-centred conversations with elements of Trauma-Focused Therapy and practical tools such as psychoeducation and creative outlets.
Sessions aim to help people connect with who they are and regain a sense of agency after difficult experiences. Megan has three years of professional experience. She draws on her own periods of recovery to offer an empathetic, non-judgemental presence.
This shapes how she welcomes people at first contact and during early sessions. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions to suit therapist availability. Payment uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
Sessions take place in the United Kingdom and are offered in English.

How Megan works online
Trauma-Focused Therapy is also part of her practice. That approach focuses on addressing the effects of traumatic events and building skills to manage distressing memories and reactions. It is aimed at people who want to make specific changes after difficult experiences.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Megan will work collaboratively to decide whether to emphasise client-centred conversations, trauma-focused techniques, or a mix of both based on a person’s needs and preferences. The aim is to agree on practical goals and steps together.
If you are considering online options, please confirm the session formats offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people value the flexibility to schedule sessions around work or family commitments, and therapists can adapt techniques to suit those routines.
