Approaches listed

Narrative Therapy in this listing

Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.

If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Maureen directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.

Online session options

Using Narrative and Action-Focused Methods Online

Maureen often uses Narrative Therapy to help people separate themselves from their problems and retell stressful life events in less damaging ways. Narrative work helps when past stories or roles keep getting in the way of current goals. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which teaches noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and committing to small acts that match personal values; this is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Maureen partners with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and style. She invites clients to try practical techniques, review how they feel, and adjust approaches together as needed so the work stays useful and relevant.

Online therapy offers flexibility for different routines. Video calls support face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to fit brief updates or to work through skills between sessions. These options let people use therapy in ways that match their schedule and daily life.
