About Megan

Megan Clarke is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems and anger. Megan also supports people facing trauma, grief, self-esteem issues and changes at work or home.

Megan uses a person-centred outlook in sessions. She listens for what matters most and helps people decide what to focus on. She also draws on solution-focused ideas to identify practical steps that can reduce tension and make daily life easier.

Sessions are conversational and goal-aware. Megan asks whether the person prefers open talk, clearer structure, or short tasks between meetings. She checks in about focusing on past experiences or current problems, and adapts the session style accordingly.

She is sex-positive and kink-aware, and works respectfully with LGBTQIA+ identities. People do not need to explain or justify their identity or lifestyle when they come to her. Topics such as intimacy, body image, eating patterns and relationship agreements are within her remit.

Megan has a Master’s in Counselling and Psychotherapy from the University of Keele and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP. Her practical focus is on helping people notice patterns, try small changes, and build clearer ways to cope with difficult feelings like anger.

How sessions work

How her approaches work in online sessions

Megan uses a person-centred approach which focuses on listening and following what matters most to the client. That method helps when someone needs a space to talk through strong feelings like anger, grief or hurt and to work out what matters right now.

She also uses solution-focused work to identify small, practical steps that reduce stress and build coping skills. Solution-focused techniques suit people who want short-term changes or clear, measurable goals, for example managing reactions at work or preventing snapping at loved ones.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Megan will discuss what the client prefers and try different ways of working until a good fit emerges. That collaboration means goals, pace and session style are chosen together based on needs and preferences.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with Megan about how you want to structure meetings so sessions fit everyday life and the practical demands around you.
