Megan Gervais

Megan Gervais is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Connecticut with 18 years of experience. She has worked across many settings, including therapeutic mentoring, child welfare, hospital transplant care, and chronic illness support. Megan focuses on meeting people where they are and listening to the whole story before making a plan.

Her style is flexible and client-centered. She combines goal-focused work with relationship building, so sessions often involve setting small, achievable steps. Megan uses practical techniques to help with anxiety, depression, grief, caregiving stress, and life transitions.

She brings experience supporting people facing end-of-life concerns, fertility and adoption-related challenges, chronic pain and illness, and issues around body image and isolation. Her work also covers panic and mood disorders, postpartum concerns, and challenges many people face around career and life purpose.

Megan uses approaches such as Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Internal Family Systems to shape sessions. She adapts methods to each person's needs rather than following a single script.

People who prefer clear goals, practical steps, and a collaborative process may find her approach helpful. She aims to make seeking support feel respectful and straightforward, without judgment, while helping clients build momentum toward the changes they want.

Approaches that translate well to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and building a collaborative relationship so the client feels understood and supported. It helps when someone needs a steady, nonjudgmental space to talk through stress, grief, or life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and sleep difficulties because it offers techniques people can practice between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and then try methods that fit those needs. That collaborative process makes it easier to adjust if something isn't helping.

For practical matters, confirm current session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it simpler to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow focused check-ins between other responsibilities. Some approaches lend themselves to short skill-building sessions while others support more in-depth conversation, and the therapist will help match the format to the intended goals.
