Rev. Mae Barree is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Texas with seven years of clinical experience. She welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress or anxiety and those facing relationship strain, grief, anger, or depression. Her style is warm and direct, offering a respectful space to be heard and understood.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice how thoughts and behaviors affect mood. She also works with Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term goals and build small, practical changes. Imago Relationship Therapy is part of her toolkit for people who want to improve connection and communication with partners.

Sessions focus on practical steps the client can take between meetings. Together they build a plan that reflects the client’s goals and daily life. Conversations are goal-oriented and paced to each person's needs.

Her practice addresses a range of concerns including workplace stress, communication problems, divorce and separation issues, forgiveness work, pregnancy and childbirth adjustments, and growing self-love. She also supports people navigating LGBT concerns and career-related stress.

Mae emphasizes being listened to without judgment. She encourages taking the next step toward change and partners with clients to find workable solutions. The process aims to reduce overwhelm and increase manageable coping skills.

How CBT, Imago, and Solution-Focused Work Online

CBT helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviors to change mood and stress levels. Online sessions can focus on identifying thought patterns, practicing new skills, and reviewing real-life homework between meetings.

Imago Relationship Therapy concentrates on improving communication and emotional connection between partners. In an online setting this work can include structured dialogues, role walkthroughs, and coaching on how to speak and listen more effectively to reduce recurring conflict.

Solution-Focused Therapy centers on finding small, practical steps that move someone toward their goals. Online meetings often prioritize quick wins, clear action plans, and tracking progress week to week to build momentum.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they will adjust the plan as progress is made and new priorities emerge.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy schedule and shorter check-ins when needed. If you prefer to avoid video some sessions can be adapted to other formats but confirm current session options before booking. Online work still focuses on concrete skills and real-life change, helping people manage stress and improve relationships while balancing everyday life.
