Client-Centered and Cognitive Approaches for Online Care
Maureen uses client-centered therapy to place the person’s priorities and experiences at the forefront of care. This approach focuses on empathy, respect, and supporting clients as they lead the work, which is especially helpful for those seeking validation and self-directed growth. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is used to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and learn practical strategies to change thinking and behavior, a method that often helps with anxiety, depression, and patterns related to substance use. Motivational interviewing supports people who feel ambivalent about change by exploring and strengthening internal motivation, making it a useful tool for addiction, habit change, and life transitions.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Maureen works with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods as therapy progresses so the plan fits each person’s situation and pace.
Online therapy with Maureen is available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules or limited mobility. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, attend sessions from different locations, and use a mix of synchronous and asynchronous contact to support ongoing progress.
