How evidence-based approaches translate online

Maureen commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is practical and skill-focused, which can make homework and short-term goals easy to track between sessions.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying values and taking small committed steps toward them. ACT pairs well with mindfulness practices to reduce struggle with painful feelings and increase meaningful action.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Maureen works together with each person to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and life situation. She adapts pacing and practice so techniques fit day-to-day routines and responsibilities.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions let therapists and clients work face-to-face when helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging allow quick reflections or ongoing support between appointments. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, school, caregiving, and other demands.
