Megan Eiselt, LICSW

Megan Eiselt is a licensed independent clinical social worker in Minnesota who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and big life changes. She emphasizes the person’s own strengths and views each client as the expert on their story. Megan aims to offer steady support while people take the first steps toward change.

She uses practical, conversational methods in sessions. That means identifying thoughts and behaviors that get in the way and trying small, manageable changes. Megan listens for patterns that come from family history or long-term meanings and helps people tell their story in new ways.

Her background includes eight years working in clinical settings with a wide range of concerns. That experience has involved helping people cope with grief, sleep troubles, anger, relationship strain, parenting stress, and career questions. She also supports clients dealing with addictions, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

Megan mixes approaches depending on what a person needs. She may use cognitive behavioral ideas to address unhelpful thoughts, client-centered listening to clarify goals, or narrative and Jungian perspectives to explore deeper personal themes. Mindfulness practices are offered to build calm and focus.

Sessions are aimed at practical steps and clearer choices. Megan helps set realistic goals and breaks progress into doable actions. The tone is collaborative and straightforward so people can make change without feeling overwhelmed.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Online sessions often draw on cognitive behavioral therapy to help identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBTs focus on small, practical steps people can try between sessions to reduce worry, manage mood, and improve sleep.

Client-centered therapy is about listening and collaboration. The therapist reflects what matters most to the person, helps clarify goals, and supports decisions without directing them. Narrative and Jungian ideas may also be used to explore personal stories and deeper themes that shape how someone sees themselves.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about needs, goals, and preferences and then recommend paths to try. If something doesn’t fit, adjustments are made so the approach matches the person’s pace and priorities.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video is useful when face-to-face interaction helps progress. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging allow for brief updates or ongoing reflection between scheduled meetings, offering flexibility for different routines and schedules.
