Maureen Conboy , BACP

Maureen Conboy is a counsellor who focuses on women's issues and a range of emotional difficulties. She works with people feeling anxious, low, stressed or overwhelmed and helps them find practical steps forward. Maureen uses everyday language and straightforward exercises so conversations stay clear and useful.

She brings eight years of experience and holds BACP registration, which she uses as a professional reference. Maureen blends client-centred listening with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, tailoring sessions to each person's situation. That means listening first, then introducing simple tools that suit the person's life and goals.

Sessions often involve setting small, achievable tasks between meetings. Maureen helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with more balanced options. She also works on coping strategies for sleep problems, anger and panic, and supports people dealing with relationship strain, loneliness or life changes.

People looking for short-term problem solving can use solution-focused techniques with Maureen. For longer-standing mood or anxiety issues she offers CBT-style plans that build new habits over time. Her approach stays practical, aimed at building resilience and clearer day-to-day routines.

Maureen offers appointments to people in the United Kingdom and accepts international clients. Sessions are delivered in English and available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging.

How Maureen's approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's concerns at the centre of the sessions. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said and helps people make sense of their feelings so they can decide what to try next. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and practising new, more helpful ways of thinking and acting. It suits issues such as anxiety, panic, low mood and sleep difficulties. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and clear goals so people can see progress quickly and build on what already works.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Maureen will discuss options with each person and agree a plan together. That collaborative process means methods can change over time as needs and goals develop.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into daily life. Video calls let people use visual interaction for deeper conversation, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging can suit shorter check-ins or days when written reflection feels easier. These formats aim to make it simpler to attend and keep momentum between meetings.
