Abuse

With over 32 years of experience, Maureen works with individuals aged 18 and over, as well as couples, who face a wide range of concerns. Many clients seek support for relationship difficulties, stress, anxiety, depression, anger management, trauma, and PTSD. Others may be addressing addiction and recovery, including alcohol, drugs, or behavioral addictions such as sex or pornography, or supporting partners of addicts. Additional areas of focus include communication challenges, spiritual concerns approached from a Christian perspective, difficult childhood histories, and experiences of abuse.

Maureen’s mission is to provide high-quality, results-driven counselling within a safe, supportive, and welcoming space. Clients are guided toward meaningful, lasting change while feeling understood and cared for throughout the process.

Maureen utilizes a range of evidence-based therapies tailored to each client’s needs. Couples benefit from the Gottman Method, which strengthens communication, intimacy, and conflict resolution skills. Individual therapy may include neurotherapies such as EMDR, EMDR 2.0, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) to address trauma and emotional dysregulation. Cognitive therapy supports clients in identifying and reframing unhelpful thought patterns, while addiction and recovery-focused interventions provide psychoeducation, coping strategies, and guidance for lasting change. This integrative approach ensures that therapy addresses both the immediate concerns and the long-term goals of each client.

By staying current with the latest evidence-based practices, she ensures that treatment is both effective and tailored to individual needs. Her practice emphasizes building resilience, improving relationships, and fostering personal growth. Maureen provides a safe and welcoming environment where clients feel supported, heard, and valued.
