About Megan
Megan Smith is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach alongside mindfulness techniques to support people facing depression and related concerns. She holds a Masters degree in person-centred counselling from Chester University and lists NCPS as her credential. Her style is grounded and straightforward, aimed at helping people feel heard and understood.
She has seven years of practice and a background in psychology, with a BPS accredited undergraduate degree that informs her approach.
Background and approach
Megan also teaches counselling and psychology at Glyndwr University and has developed short courses on online and telephone counselling. Megan works with adults on a wide range of issues including anxiety, relationship difficulties, bereavement and substance misuse. She has particular experience supporting people who experienced childhood sexual abuse and other trauma and abuse.
She also helps with stress, self-esteem, grief, career changes and compassion fatigue. In sessions she focuses on listening closely and helping people notice patterns in their thoughts and feelings. Mindfulness exercises are used to build everyday coping skills and to reduce overwhelming reactions.
Conversations aim to be practical and paced to the person’s needs. Her teaching role keeps her practice informed by current conversations in counselling and psychology. Megan offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging, and works with people in the United Kingdom who communicate in English.

Approaches Megan lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase awareness of thoughts and feelings. Short exercises are used to build coping skills that help when anxiety or low mood becomes overwhelming.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and adapt the pace and techniques as needed. This helps make sessions feel practical and tailored rather than one-size-fits-all.
Online therapy offers flexibility for different rhythms of life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual connection matters. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer written exchanges or want ongoing brief contact between sessions. These options help people balance therapy with work, family and other commitments while working with registered or accredited professionals.
