About Megan

Megan Eiselt is a Minnesota LICSW (Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker) with eight years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and coping with life changes, among other concerns. Megan frames clients as the experts on their own stories and aims to work collaboratively. She uses practical conversation and reflection to help people move toward better functioning and clearer choices.

Her sessions start with listening to what matters most to the person in front of her. She pays attention to everyday problems like sleep, work stress, relationships, and parenting challenges. Megan also addresses issues such as addiction, ADHD, bipolar concerns, compassion fatigue, and grief when these come up in people’s lives.

Megan draws on several therapeutic approaches when helpful. She uses client-centered methods to follow what the client brings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools help with changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Narrative and Jungian ideas can be useful for looking at personal stories and underlying themes.

Her style is straightforward and focused on concrete steps people can try between sessions. She helps set small goals, test new habits, and reframe problems so they feel more manageable. This is practical work aimed at everyday life improvements.

Megan practices in Minnesota and conducts work in English. For people weighing next steps, she encourages completing the brief matching questionnaire and booking a first session to see if the fit feels right.

How her approaches translate to online work

Megan commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on careful listening and building understanding from the client’s perspective, which helps when people need space to tell their story. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to change patterns that cause distress. Both approaches can be used to address stress, anxiety, sleep issues, grief, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist and client decide together what methods to try based on the client's goals, what has helped before, and what feels comfortable. That collaborative decision making includes testing techniques over a few sessions and adjusting the plan as needed.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking since this profile does not specify them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, avoid travel time, or use shorter check-ins when days are full. It also makes it possible to keep regular appointments while balancing work, school, or caregiving responsibilities. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises like CBT worksheets, narrative reflections, and mindfulness practices to an online setting, so practical tools remain usable even when meeting remotely.
