Background and approach
Maureen draws from cognitive behavioral methods to identify unhelpful thinking and change behavior. She also uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify values and take action. Mindfulness practices are introduced to reduce rumination and increase present-moment awareness.
Motivational interviewing is part of her toolbox when someone feels unsure about making changes. The overall approach is tailored to each person’s needs and goals rather than following a fixed script. Maureen aims for clear, usable steps clients can practice between sessions.
She works with people dealing with trauma and abuse, addiction, eating concerns, ADHD, and life transitions. Other focuses include chronic illness, caregiver stress, communication problems, and struggles with self-esteem and purpose. Maureen frames therapy as a partnership toward more manageable days.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to the client and taking small, values-based steps. It helps when worry or avoidance gets in the way of living a meaningful life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and guides practical experiments to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Client-Centered Therapy centers on a respectful, nonjudgmental conversation so clients feel heard and can explore their own solutions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Maureen will discuss these methods with each person and decide together which fits best for their goals and preferences. She treats therapy as a collaboration and adjusts the plan as needs change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions are good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone appointments can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone needs a check-in during a break. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter notes, quick reflections, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and keep momentum between meetings.
