About Meagan

Meagan Licata is a New York licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with four years of clinical counseling experience. She works with adults who are coping with stress, anxiety, sleep problems, low self-esteem, depression, and ADHD. Meagan also focuses on concerns such as body image, chronic pain and illness, communication difficulties, guilt and shame, loneliness, life purpose, and issues many women face.

Meagan draws on practical, evidence-informed methods in sessions. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, and a client-centered stance to help people notice what matters to them. Conversations look at patterns of thinking and behavior and then develop small, manageable skills to change daily habits.

Sessions are straightforward. Meagan listens, reflects, and helps people try new approaches between meetings. She pays attention to sleep, stress, and routines because these often shape mood and focus. Where appropriate, she works on communication skills, boundaries, and reducing self-critical thinking.

People who feel stuck after a life change or who are uncertain about what matters often find it productive to focus on values and practical steps. Meagan helps identify next actions that fit real life. That can mean pacing changes over weeks, practicing brief skills, and checking what worked at the next visit.

She offers services from New York and speaks English. To begin, readers are asked to use the site matching steps to choose online therapy options, complete a short questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How Meagan integrates therapy approaches online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what they value and take small steps toward those values even when it feels hard. It is often used for anxiety, low motivation, and for people deciding what matters after a life change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing practical changes in behavior. CBT is commonly used for mood, anxiety, sleep troubles, and building clearer routines.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Meagan will discuss your goals, preferences, and day-to-day context and help decide which methods to try. That collaborative process means plans can change if something does not fit or produce useful effects.

Confirm the precise session options before booking because formats are not specified here. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow brief check-ins when needed. They can also let someone keep seeing a licensed professional while adjusting timing or pace of work to everyday demands.
