Rev. Mae Barree

Rev. Mae Barree is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Texas with seven years of experience. She aims to make the first step easier for people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, anger, relationship strain, or workplace challenges. She offers a welcoming, respectful place to talk and be heard.

Her sessions are straightforward and goal oriented. She listens first, then helps people set clear, manageable steps to feel better. Conversations focus on practical strategies for day-to-day problems and on rebuilding routines that reduce stress.

Mae blends cognitive behavioral approaches with solution-focused work and Imago Relationship ideas. That means she helps clients notice unhelpful thoughts, try small behavior changes, and use concrete exercises to improve communication. The emphasis is on what can change now, not on long explanations about the past.

She also pays attention to issues around divorce and separation, communication problems, forgiveness, self-love, pregnancy and childbirth transitions, and LGBT concerns. Those topics come up as part of the broader work on relationships and life stressors.

Mae encourages a collaborative process. Together she and the client build a plan that fits the person’s goals and daily life. She welcomes questions and aims to make each session practical and focused on real improvements.

Therapeutic approaches and how they help online

Mae commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. She also incorporates Solution-Focused Therapy, which centers on setting clear goals and finding immediate steps that move a person toward those goals. Imago Relationship Therapy ideas may appear when communication and connection are central concerns, offering exercises to improve understanding between partners.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each client to choose methods that match the person's goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together over time.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. It also lets people try therapeutic tools in the settings where they live and work, making changes more practical and actionable.
