About Meagan

Dr. Meagan Marksbury is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing relationship strain, parenting stresses, trauma and abuse, mood concerns like depression and bipolar disorder, anxiety, addictions, grief, and anger. Sessions address practical problems and everyday coping.

Marksbury emphasizes helping people name specific problems and build coping skills to change how they act and react. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy along with person-centered ideas to match the method to the person. That means sessions often focus on clear steps, small experiments, and measurable changes rather than only long conversations.

Her background includes work with people impacted by physical or emotional abuse and with veterans and armed forces issues. She has experience across individual, couples, family, and group settings from earlier roles. Those experiences inform how she structures intervention and safety planning when trauma or domestic violence is involved.

In the room she aims to be direct and respectful. Typical work may include identifying triggers for anger, testing new responses in low-stakes situations, and tracking progress week to week. Homework and real-world practice are commonly used to reinforce change.

People often come for help reducing reactive outbursts, lowering workplace frustration, repairing relationship harm, or managing long-standing resentment. If someone wants to explore options, the path begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

CBT focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In practice this means identifying specific thought patterns that lead to anger and testing alternative responses through small behavioral experiments. It is useful for workplace frustration, repeated snapping at loved ones, and persistent worry that fuels irritability.

Solution-Focused Therapy centers on brief, goal-oriented steps. Sessions often start with a clear, short-term goal and look for what already works. This approach suits people who want concrete changes fast, such as reducing the number of angry outbursts or improving communication in a relationship.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, try specific techniques, and adjust methods based on what helps. Clients and the therapist decide together which strategies to keep using.

Session format details in the original biography are not specified here, so confirm current session options before booking. In general, online work can fit into busy days, make shorter check-ins easier, and reduce travel time. It also makes it simpler to bring skills learned in therapy directly into daily routines, like practicing a new response during a work break or testing a calming technique between sessions.
