About Maureen
Maureen McEachen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in California with ten years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, grief and loss, depression, anxiety, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and life transitions. She also works with issues like sleep problems, self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Maureen supports people with aging and geriatric concerns, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and end-of-life matters.
She uses practical, talk-based methods to help people manage day-to-day strain. Sessions often involve learning tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Maureen also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness practices to build tolerance for difficult feelings and clarify personal values.
Her background includes earlier practice in the Washington, DC area, where she focused on mental health and depression before relocating to California two decades ago. She holds an LICSW credential from the District of Columbia as well as LCSW status in California. That experience informs work with grief, caregiving, and serious illness.
In sessions she listens for practical problems and patterns that make life harder. Conversations typically look at coping strategies, communication habits, and small behavior changes that reduce stress. She also works with attachment-related concerns and with people processing trauma and abuse.
People often come with a mix of issues. Maureen helps sort priorities and set clear, achievable steps. She asks about daily routines, supports available to you, and what you want to change or manage next.
BHow sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions can fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that align with what matters most. It can be useful for anxiety, grief, and major life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and gives straightforward tools to test and change unhelpful patterns. It is often helpful for depression, anxiety, and sleep problems. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the person can find their own solutions; it supports self-awareness and decision making.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Maureen will discuss what feels most useful based on your goals, needs, and preferences, and will adjust methods as you progress. This is a collaborative process that balances practical steps and personal values.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce travel time when juggling work, caregiving, or health appointments. Discussing scheduling and format early in the intake helps match session length and frequency to daily life without assuming a particular setup.
