Megan Gramlow, LICSW, LCSW

Megan Gramlow is a licensed social worker with 12 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns. She speaks plainly and listens carefully to understand what matters most to each person. Her approach aims to make therapy feel practical and doable for busy lives.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered methods, and mindfulness strategies to help people spot unhelpful patterns and try different ways of coping. That can look like breaking worries into small steps, practicing new responses in the moment, or learning simple grounding skills for intense feelings.

Megan also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy and motivational interviewing when someone needs support with strong impulses, emotion regulation, or finding motivation to change. Sessions focus on skill-building and realistic goals rather than long lectures or one-size-fits-all plans.

She has worked with people struggling with attention and focus, sexual concerns, life transitions, and feelings of isolation. Megan helps people explore communication problems, issues around intimacy and sexuality, and challenges tied to money and life purpose.

Megan holds a Minnesota LICSW and a Wisconsin LCSW. She offers sessions in English and provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step will connect a person to her practice.

Approaches you can use online

The practice commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviors, which can help with anxiety, stress, and focus problems. Client-Centered Therapy is also part of the work, where the therapist follows your concerns and supports you in finding your own solutions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques may be introduced for managing strong emotions and impulsivity, often through practicing concrete skills in-session and between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the first few meetings. The therapist will work collaboratively to match techniques to your goals, needs, and preferences rather than imposing a single method. That means trying a skill, checking how it fits, and adjusting the plan together over time.

Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and teaching skills, phone calls can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging is useful for shorter check-ins or ongoing coaching between sessions. These formats give flexibility for different schedules, energy levels, and communication styles.
