About Megan
Megan King is a counsellor who focuses on helping people who feel stuck, anxious, or overwhelmed. She speaks in a warm, direct way and aims to make sessions feel simple and approachable for someone under stress. She sees issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship problems.
She also works with people navigating identity and LGBT concerns and with a range of related challenges like attachment struggles, body image and eating issues, or feelings of emptiness.
Background and approach
Megan uses a pluralistic approach, which means she draws on a few methods to suit each person. She works from an existential perspective to help people find meaning, and combines that with practical strategies from cognitive behavioural therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy when useful. She is a registered member of the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
Megan has three years of professional experience and practises in the United Kingdom. Sessions are offered in English. In a session she listens, asks plain questions and helps people notice patterns that get in the way.
She will work with each person to agree small steps and ways of testing what helps. The aim is to leave people feeling clearer about choices and more able to manage day-to-day pressure. To begin, people are invited to use the site matching process to connect and arrange sessions.
Megan prefers a collaborative way of working and adjusts methods to match a person’s needs and timing.

Online support
Approaches online and how they help
Existential therapy invites people to ask what matters most to them and to look at how they want to live. It can help when life feels empty, confusing or full of hard choices. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while taking small steps towards chosen values and meaningful action. It is often useful for anxiety and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape patterns now and helps people try new ways of relating to themselves and others.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with each person about goals and preferences and try methods that fit. Decisions about which techniques to use are made together, so the focus stays practical and relevant to daily life.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are closer to face-to-face interaction, phone sessions need less bandwidth, and chat or messaging can suit short check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options help people fit therapy around work, caregiving or busy schedules while keeping the same collaborative process with a registered BACP professional.
