About Megan
Megan Navratil, LPC, helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. She writes plainly and focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Many clients come for help with parenting concerns, self-esteem, career change, or managing mood shifts like bipolar symptoms.
Megan builds a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through what matters most. She uses goal-focused conversations to identify one or two things to work on each week. That can mean changing unhelpful thinking, practicing new ways to talk, or setting realistic steps toward a career goal.
Her approach centers on cognitive behavioral methods that focus on present-day problems and patterns. That means looking at thoughts, feelings, and actions, and testing new behaviors to see what works. She also uses solution-focused techniques to break problems into manageable steps and build confidence.
Megan has a Master’s degree in Rehabilitation Counseling from the University of Pittsburgh and 14 years of counseling experience. She has a background supporting youth and young adults with learning differences, ADHD, depression, and autism spectrum differences.
She offers executive coaching and career counseling for people aiming for a specific work goal. This can include transition planning, communication skills, performance strategies, and handling workplace conflict.
Megan encourages straightforward, practical work in sessions. She aims to help people leave therapy with clearer goals, new skills they can practice, and more confidence in their day-to-day choices.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Many of her methods come from cognitive behavioral approaches that focus on present problems. CBT-style work looks at the thoughts that shape feelings and behavior, then tests new ways of thinking and acting to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. This approach often includes simple exercises to try between sessions.She also uses solution-focused techniques that zero in on clear goals and small steps. Those sessions are practical and brief, which can help when a client wants faster progress on a specific issue like parenting strategies or workplace challenges.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, timing, and comfort with different kinds of exercises. That means planning goals, trying techniques, and adjusting as needed so the work feels useful.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for more flexible scheduling. Some formats also let people do shorter check-ins when a full session is not ideal, or avoid being on camera if that helps someone stay focused. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and solution-focused work to remote sessions while keeping the focus on practical steps and goal progress.
