About Maureen
Maureen Conboy is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with eight years' experience helping people with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She focuses on common everyday problems such as sleeping difficulties, anger, relationship concerns and coping with life changes. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.
She uses Client-Centred Therapy to listen to each person's experience and to build a practical working relationship. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, is a core part of her work and is used to identify unhelpful thinking and to try small experiments that can change mood and behaviour. Solution-Focused Therapy is used when people want brief, goal-directed support to build on what already works.
In sessions Maureen works collaboratively to set clear goals and to practise skills between meetings. Typical techniques include breaking problems into manageable steps, testing assumptions about worries, and developing routines that help with sleep and stress. This is pragmatic, task-oriented work rather than long theoretical discussion.
She also addresses a wide range of related concerns such as social anxiety, panic, obsessions and compulsions, feelings of emptiness or isolation, and issues linked to ageing, divorce or domestic violence. Work with LGBT concerns and women's issues is part of her practice.
People can expect straightforward conversations about what is and isn’t helping, and practical tasks to try between sessions. To start, the service asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.

How her approaches are used in online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s experience and on building a collaborative working relationship. The therapist listens closely and helps people reflect on their thoughts and feelings so they can choose the next steps.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It involves practical exercises such as testing worrying thoughts, changing unhelpful behaviours, and building routines for sleep and stress management.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on what a person wants to achieve and on small, concrete steps that move them towards that goal. It is useful when people want brief, goal-directed help and clear tasks to try between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has helped or not helped in the past, and then agree a plan together. This is a collaborative process that may combine techniques from different approaches.
Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when helpful, and reduce travel time. Registered or accredited professionals often use online sessions to maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are difficult to schedule.
