Approaches that translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following each person's concerns. It helps people feel heard and decide what changes matter most. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple practices to calm the body and mind and can reduce stress and reactivity in daily life. Narrative therapy looks at personal stories and helps people reframe painful patterns and find new meanings in their experiences.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Maureen will collaborate with each client to see which mix of listening, mindfulness, and story-focused work fits their goals and preferences. She adjusts plans as needs evolve and checks in about what feels useful.

It also allows for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight and flexibility for people managing chronic illness or caregiving duties.
