About Meagan
Her practice centers on helping people name their problems and learn practical coping skills. Sessions focus on how thoughts and actions connect, and on small changes that can reduce distress. Respect and compassion guide her work and set the tone for conversations.
Dr. Marksbury uses methods from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. She blends these approaches so the work fits each person's needs rather than forcing a single method. That means short-term goal work and tools to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.
Her background includes a doctoral degree in counseling psychology and more than a decade of clinical experience. She has worked with people facing depression, bipolar mood concerns, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, anger, and family problems. She has also provided care for people connected to the military and veteran communities.
In sessions she aims to build practical skills for day-to-day life. People who come for help often learn concrete strategies to manage reactions, improve relationships, and cope with life changes. When someone is ready to begin, she guides the next steps toward scheduling and matching therapeutic goals.

How CBT and Solution-Focused Work Online
Dr. Marksbury uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and try out small behavior changes that reduce stress and anxiety. CBT often involves clear steps and exercises people can practice between sessions to see what shifts in daily life.She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy, which targets specific goals and looks for what is already working. That approach is useful when someone wants brief, goal-directed sessions to change particular relationship or coping patterns.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether to focus on short-term problem solving, skills training, or a mix of methods.
Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current session options before booking.
