01About Maureen
Maureen Colligan greets people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or worn down by stress and anxiety. She offers steady, respectful support for those coping with trauma, grief, low self-esteem, and depression. Maureen works to make early sessions simple and clear so people can decide if this is a good fit.
Maureen is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, and also holds an LPCC credential. She has three decades of professional experience in mental health practice and brings that practical experience to conversations about change.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what matters most to the individual, not a one-size treatment plan. Her approach centers on the person in the room. That means listening carefully, asking clear questions, and shaping the work around immediate needs and longer term goals.
Techniques include helping people notice unhelpful thinking, test small behavior changes, and build on what already works for them. When trauma or past harm is part of the picture, Maureen uses trauma-focused methods to help process painful memories and reduce their impact on daily life. Solution-focused steps are also used to set short-term goals and track progress between sessions.
Maureen welcomes conversations about aging, caregiver stress, money worries, codependency, and the strain of life changes like divorce or loss. She aims to make each session practical, calm, and respectful so people can take workable next steps toward feeling better.

04Online support
Practical therapy methods for online care
Maureen commonly draws on client-centered work to start sessions by focusing on the person's priorities. This approach emphasizes listening and responding to what feels most urgent, and it helps shape a plan that fits the client's goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to distress and to test small changes that can bring relief and clearer choices.Deciding which approach fits best is part of the therapeutic process. Maureen will work together with clients to choose methods based on current needs, goals, and personal preferences. That collaborative process can shift over time as progress is made or new challenges appear.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for fuller conversations and reading nonverbal cues. Phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief updates, tracking progress between sessions, or when typing feels more comfortable than talking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep momentum between appointments.
