Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Maureen draws from several proven therapeutic approaches to guide online sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps clients clarify personal values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise - it is useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors; it is often effective for depression, anxiety, and coping with everyday challenges. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance techniques that can reduce reactivity and improve emotion regulation, which supports work with trauma, grief, and emotional dysregulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Maureen works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts sessions over time so therapy remains practical and relevant.

Online therapy with Maureen is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules and varied comfort levels. These options make it easier for clients to access regular support, maintain continuity of care, and engage in therapy from locations that work best for them.
