Maureen Conboy, BACP

Maureen Conboy is a counsellor who focuses on thoughts and everyday habits that affect mood and coping. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and life changes. Maureen uses practical techniques to help people build resilience and manage day-to-day challenges.

She works in a calm, non-judgemental way and aims to make sessions straightforward and useful. Conversations centre on what is happening now and on small, manageable changes that can make a difference. Practical tools and simple experiments are often part of the work.

Maureen draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to shape each person’s plan. CBT is used to look at thoughts and habits, while client-centred methods keep the person’s priorities central. Solution-focused ideas help set clear, short-term goals and track progress.

She has eight years of experience and is a BACP member, which reflects her professional standing in the UK. Maureen accepts international clients and runs sessions in English. Information about formats should be confirmed before booking.

People who come to Maureen often want down-to-earth strategies for anxiety, sleep problems, anger or relationship worries. She helps people identify what they can change now, and supports them in practising new habits between sessions.

How Maureen’s approaches work online

Maureen uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to look at how thoughts and actions interact. CBT encourages practical experiments and habit changes to reduce anxiety, improve sleep and lift mood. Client-Centred Therapy keeps the focus on the person’s own priorities and pace, offering a respectful, listening space where goals are set by the client.

She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to identify small, achievable steps and measure progress. Together these approaches aim to give straightforward tools and clear next steps rather than lengthy theory. Choosing the right mix of methods is part of the work and will be decided together in early sessions.

Finding the best therapeutic approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss your goals, what has helped before, and what feels realistic now. That conversation shapes which techniques are used and how sessions are organised.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work, reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins between busy days. It can also allow sessions without being on camera or with shorter check-ins when that suits your schedule.
