She has worked in community mental health, private practice, and school settings, and teaches as a psychology professor at a university in Ohio.

She uses solution-focused and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people set clear goals and make practical changes. Dr. Meyer encourages clients to lead sessions and draws on their own strengths and resources. That practical orientation is paired with a focus on building a reliable working relationship that supports progress between meetings.
Over the years she has helped adults and adolescents cope with relationship strain, self-esteem concerns, mood disorders, and life transitions such as career shifts or family changes.

She offers coaching-style support for concrete steps like career planning or managing work-related stress.
She explains interventions plainly and encourages skill practice outside sessions. Clients can expect goal-focused work that blends short-term strategies with deeper emotional work when needed. Dr. Meyer aims to help people develop tools they can continue to use on their own.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the client's perspective so the client can guide the work; it helps when someone wants an open conversation about values, relationships, or identity. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress reduction. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and shift underlying emotions that affect close relationships and intimacy, which can be useful for recurring relationship issues.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which methods fit best based on goals, needs, and preferences. That can mean trying short-term solution-focused steps first, and adding CBT or EFT elements later as needed.
The biography does not list specific session formats here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also make it simpler to use worksheets or structured exercises during a session. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches for remote work while keeping the focus on clear goals and usable skills.
