Megan King , BACP

Megan King recognises that reaching out for support can feel like a significant step and offers a compassionate, nonjudgmental space for people to explore what matters to them. She creates an atmosphere where thoughts and feelings can be examined at the client’s own pace, helping individuals make sense of difficult experiences without pressure.

As a pluralistic counsellor and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), Megan works from the belief that there is no single route to change. She tailors the therapeutic approach to each person’s needs - drawing on different methods, encouraging creative expression when useful, or simply allowing time to talk things through.

Megan frames her role as a companion on the journey rather than someone who hands down answers. She supports people dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship difficulties, meeting them with warmth, empathy, and respect. When clients feel ready, she invites them to make contact and begin exploring their concerns together.

Therapeutic approaches and online support with Megan King

Megan often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy in her work. ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them while clarifying personal values and taking meaningful steps forward - an approach that can be useful for anxiety, stress, and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns, which can help with abandonment, attachment issues, and relationship difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy prioritises empathic listening and a supportive, non-directive stance that lets the client lead the pace of change and deepens self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Megan will work collaboratively with clients to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the way of working as understanding grows.

Online therapy via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility and accessibility, allowing clients to engage from locations that suit them and to choose communication styles that feel most comfortable. Licensed professionals and therapists can adapt techniques to these formats, providing consistent support while making it easier to fit therapy into everyday life.
