Megan Wadsworth works from a person-centred standpoint that puts the client at the centre of the work. She honours each person’s story and helps them make sense of painful feelings. Megan uses a calm, listening approach to guide people through stress, anxiety and low mood.

She supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, including sexual assault and domestic violence. She also helps people facing problems with self-esteem, guilt, shame and dissociation.

Background and approach

Megan has particular experience with attachment and abandonment concerns, and with issues around BDSM, kink and alternative sex culture. Her short clinical background spans three years of practice in the United Kingdom and she holds BACP registration, which is noted as her credential.

She frames clients as the experts in their own lives and builds on existing strengths rather than starting from scratch. Sessions focus on talking through what is happening now and tracing patterns that link back to earlier experiences. Megan’s psychodynamic and attachment-based influences mean she pays attention to relationships and recurring themes.

Trauma-focused elements are used to help people manage the effects of distressing events. Practical goals are part of the work. She helps people find clearer direction, healthier boundaries and more self-compassion.

People can expect straightforward conversation, steady listening and collaborative next steps.

How her approaches work online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can be used to notice how people relate, make sense of attachment wounds and practise healthier ways of connecting. Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s own goals and choices at the heart of the work. In an online setting this means the counsellor follows your lead, listens closely and helps you find your own answers.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process and the therapist will make that decision together with the client. She will discuss concerns, goals and preferences, then try methods that match what the person needs. That collaborative approach means the therapy can change as issues become clearer.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and deeper non-verbal contact. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or suit people who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging offer brief check-ins, the chance to reflect in writing and greater flexibility for busy days. These options help people access therapy from different places and schedules.
