About Megan

Megan Sihle is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who draws on humanistic and existential ideas in her work. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. She also supports people dealing with grief, caregiver strain, body image and aging and geriatric issues. Her approach aims to meet people where they are and help them make sense of difficult feelings.

Megan earned a Master of Science degree in Mental Health Counseling from Stetson University in 2004 and has practiced for 13 years. She ran a private practice in Winter Park, Florida, then spent seven years in Nicaragua running counseling and wellness retreats on the Pacific coast. While there she worked with people from many countries on anxiety, grief, meaning, relationships, and life transitions.

Now based in Miami, she emphasizes honest, grounded work and believes growth often requires persistence and willingness to sit with discomfort. Sessions look at life questions, personal choice, and meaning while also considering practical self-care like sleep, nutrition, and spiritual or physical well-being. She describes her style as eclectic with a humanistic bent and a holistic view of mental health.

In sessions she aims to create space for self-exploration and for people to discover their own resources. She invites clients to bring real concerns - work strain, parenting challenges, midlife shifts, or feelings of isolation - and to take manageable steps toward change. Her background includes both clinical practice and international retreat facilitation, which inform a flexible, person-centered way of working.

How these approaches guide online work

Megan draws on client-centered and existential directions to guide sessions in plain, practical ways. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel heard and can find their own solutions; it helps with low self-esteem, relationship strain, and everyday stress. Existential Therapy looks at questions of meaning, choice, and life purpose and is useful for people facing midlife shifts, grief, or feelings of emptiness. Imago Relationship Therapy centers on improving communication and connection by helping partners understand each other’s emotional experience and patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Megan collaborates with each person to identify which ideas and techniques feel most useful. She adjusts how sessions proceed based on someone’s goals, concerns, and what feels workable in daily life.

Please confirm available session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help when arranging sessions around work, caregiving duties, or medical appointments. Licensed professionals can tailor the pace and focus to help people manage anxiety, caregiver stress, life transitions, and aging concerns without requiring long commutes.
