About Maureen

Maureen Kirchhoff is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Wyoming and Colorado with 40 years of professional experience. She works with adults 21 and older on common struggles such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and grief. Maureen also addresses self-esteem and relationship-related concerns in individual sessions.

She practices in straightforward, person-focused ways that center the client's experience. Sessions look like calm conversations where the client’s story matters. Maureen uses elements of client-centered work and narrative approaches to help people make sense of hard events and shifting identity after loss or change.

Mindfulness techniques are part of her toolkit for managing anxiety, stress, and problems with chronic pain or illness. She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to consider how past family-of-origin experiences shape current patterns of behavior and feelings. Systemic thinking helps her notice how relationships and roles influence everyday struggles such as caregiver stress and communication problems.

Maureen can include faith-based counseling when that fits a client's preferences. She focuses on practical coping strategies for issues like abandonment, guilt and shame, isolation, and life-purpose questions. Her approach emphasizes clear conversation and steady attention to what is most pressing in a person's life.

Maureen works only with individual adult clients at this time and does not offer couples or family sessions. Sessions and any subscription details should be confirmed during the initial intake and scheduling steps.

BHow sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Maureen uses client-centered Therapy and mindfulness techniques together to offer practical, moment-to-moment tools. Client-centered work means the conversation centers on the client's concerns and priorities, which helps when sorting stress, low motivation, or self-esteem issues. Mindfulness practices help people notice and manage anxiety, chronic pain, and tension through breath work and grounding exercises.

She also uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe life events and the stories they tell about themselves. That approach can be useful for grief, trauma, and questions about life purpose. Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Maureen will discuss goals and preferences with each person and adjust methods as needs become clearer.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit work and caregiving schedules, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and avoid travel on days with pain or health challenges. Talk with Maureen during the intake about how sessions can be scheduled to match everyday life and practical constraints.
