Maureen is a warm, experienced therapist who helps individuals, couples, families and groups lead healthier, more peaceful lives. Sometimes this involves the use of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) which is particularly effective in addressing anxiety, anger and depression. Other times it may involve developing new coping strategies and problem solving skills to lead an effective life. Sessions are held in private, comfortable settings.
Maureen also consults to private and public sector businesses and institutions on mental health challenges in the workplace.
My passion is working with people who want more out of life and are willing to invest in creating an outer reality that reflects their inner values and dreams. I founded Prosperity Quotient, a company which provides counselling services and seminars dedicated to enrich your sense of prosperity and well-being.
