About Maureen
Maureen Conboy helps people who are feeling anxious, low, stressed or stuck. She writes simply and listens carefully to each person’s story. Her approach aims to give clear tools and steady support so people can manage tough days and move forward.
She uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which focuses on how thoughts, feelings and actions link together. She also draws on Client-Centred Therapy to make sessions warm and respectful, and Solution-Focused Therapy to set practical goals.
Background and approach
Sessions combine talking and practical exercises tailored to what each person needs. Maureen has eight years’ experience and works with a wide range of concerns including self-esteem, sleep problems, anger and relationship worries. She also supports people facing life transitions, isolation, mood difficulties, obsessive thoughts, panic and phobias.
She is listed with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. People can expect straightforward tools, gentle challenge and space to be heard.
Maureen aims to help people build skills they can use between sessions to cope with everyday pressures. Sessions are offered in English and she works with clients in the United Kingdom as well as international clients. Contact starts by completing a short matching questionnaire and arranging sessions to suit each person’s schedule.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. It teaches practical skills and behaviour changes to reduce anxiety, panic, low mood and unhelpful patterns of thinking.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and short-term goals. It is useful when someone wants quicker changes and clear strategies to tackle specific problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Maureen will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then agree a plan together. This collaborative process helps decide whether more skills work, reflective listening or goal-focused tasks will be most helpful.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation; phone sessions work well if bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer typing or need to keep notes from sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, travel or different time zones while keeping the focus on helpful tools and steady progress.
