Megan Smith

Megan Smith is a counsellor who uses client-centred and mindfulness approaches to help people cope with stress, anxiety and eating and food-related issues. She holds NCPS accreditation and draws on seven years of practice to offer steady, practical support. She speaks English and works from the United Kingdom.

Megan focuses on what each person brings to the room and listens without judgement. Sessions aim to help people understand their feelings, notice unhelpful patterns, and make small changes that fit their life. She uses mindfulness techniques to help with stress, anxiety, and body image concerns.

Her background includes a Masters degree in person-centred counselling from Chester University and an undergraduate psychology degree accredited by the British Psychological Society. She also completed a short course in online and telephone counselling and has developed a short course for Glyndwr University where she teaches counselling and psychology.

Megan has worked with adults aged 18 to 90. Her experience includes supporting people with depression, bereavement, drug and alcohol addiction, and trauma such as childhood sexual abuse. She also works with relationship difficulties, miscarriage and pregnancy trauma, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.

In sessions she aims for a calm, steady pace and practical steps that people can try between meetings. The focus may include coping strategies, mindfulness exercises, and exploring personal history when it helps recovery. Clients are encouraged to set goals and reflect on changes as therapy progresses.

Client-centred and mindfulness approaches for online support

Megan draws on client-centred counselling which centres on the person's own experience. This approach means the counsellor listens closely, reflects what they hear, and helps the person make sense of their feelings. It suits people who want a non-directive space to explore worries, relationship issues, or eating and food-related concerns.

She also uses mindfulness therapy to teach simple practices for noticing thoughts and bodily sensations. Mindfulness can help reduce anxiety, improve concentration, and ease stress reactions that often feed into low mood or body image worries.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Megan will work with each person to try methods that fit their goals and preferences, and she will adjust the focus as therapy progresses. The aim is to find practical ways to manage symptoms and make everyday life feel more manageable.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around work, childcare or travel, and it can reduce the time spent travelling to appointments. Some people also prefer shorter check-ins by audio when they need brief support, while others choose sessions that allow for longer reflection.
