Background and approach
Her approach blends cognitive behavioral methods with solution-focused ideas and relational work. That means identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing new ways of responding, and looking for strengths that can be built on in daily life. Mae also pays attention to communication patterns and issues related to career, family roles, LGBT concerns, divorce and separation, forgiveness, and pregnancy and childbirth.
She aims to make room for emotional processing while coaching toward useful, everyday strategies. Sessions are offered in English and use a collaborative, respectful tone. People meet Mae for focused problem solving, support during transitions, and help rebuilding self-love and relationships.
She encourages anyone feeling stuck to take the next small step toward help.
Online approaches that focus on thinking, solutions, and relationships
Rev. Mae Barree uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and patterns that feed anxiety or low mood. CBT is action-oriented and often includes simple exercises to try between sessions.She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy, which centers on small, practical steps and building on what already works. This approach helps people set clear goals and track small wins toward those goals.
Imago Relationship Therapy informs her relational work, focusing on how communication patterns and unmet needs shape interactions. That perspective is useful for people who want to improve how they connect and talk through conflict.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. Mae will discuss options with each person and tailor methods to fit their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they decide which techniques to try and whether to adjust them over time.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video lets visual cues guide the work, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging supports brief check-ins or ongoing notes between meetings. These formats aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
