About Maureen
Maureen Conboy is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has eight years of experience and focuses on stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, LGBT issues, relationship concerns, sleep problems, anger and coping with life changes.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centred methods and solution-focused techniques. Sessions are practical and goal-oriented. Maureen helps people notice patterns of thinking and small behaviours that keep problems going, then tries new ways of responding.
Her work includes common mood and anxiety concerns such as panic, phobias, obsessive-compulsive patterns, social anxiety and mood disorders. She also supports people dealing with separation, domestic violence consequences, loneliness, ageing issues and communication problems. These areas are approached with clear tools and step-by-step plans.
Maureen explains ideas plainly and uses short exercises between sessions when helpful. She aims to make therapy useful for everyday life - for example improving sleep routines or reducing overwhelm during stressful periods. Practical coping skills are paired with time to reflect on feelings.
Sessions are run from the United Kingdom and are offered in English. International clients are accepted. Before booking, people should confirm current session options and the subscription cost model that applies to their location.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Maureen often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot the thoughts and habits that increase anxiety or low mood, and then tries practical experiments to change them. She also works with client-centred principles, which means giving space for the person to lead what feels most important in the session. Solution-focused techniques are used to set clear goals and identify small, realistic steps that move a person forward.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Maureen will discuss options and decide together with the client which methods match the person’s goals, needs and preferences. That planning is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
The profile does not specify session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and travel by removing commute time. They also allow brief check-ins when a shorter contact is needed and can reduce the need to be on camera if that helps someone engage. Registered or accredited professionals offer remote sessions in various setups, so check the therapist's listed formats when arranging a first appointment.
