About Megan

Megan Renz is a licensed mental health counselor with ten years of experience in clinical work. She holds licensure as an LMHC and practices in Florida while also noting licensure in New York. Megan focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and challenges with self-esteem and motivation.

Her approach is straightforward and respectful. She adapts conversations and treatment to each person's needs and emphasizes compassion and sensitivity. Megan encourages practical steps toward a more fulfilling life and supports people as they make changes.

In sessions she often uses techniques that help people notice unhelpful thoughts, build coping skills, and set small achievable goals. Mindfulness practices and solution-focused strategies are offered when they fit the client's goals. Motivational interviewing is used to strengthen commitment and clarify what a person wants to change.

Megan has particular experience working with people who interact with the penal system since 2020, in addition to broader concerns like relationship strain, grief, career stress, and burnout. She also works with issues such as ADHD symptoms, mood disorders, obsessive-compulsive concerns, and process addictions when relevant to a person's goals.

Her style is collaborative and practical. Megan will work with each person to create a plan that reflects their values and lifestyle. For new clients she guides them through the initial steps and helps map a clear path forward.

How approach and online work fit together

Megan commonly draws from cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centered therapy in her work. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors to change mood and stress. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a respectful, nonjudgmental space where a person’s own goals guide the work.

She also uses mindfulness techniques to help people notice their reactions and reduce reactivity. Mindfulness can be useful for anxiety, stress, and craving management because it strengthens awareness of the present moment and choices available.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Megan will listen to your goals and try strategies that fit your needs and preferences. Together you can adapt methods over time so the work remains relevant and practical.
