About Maureen
Maureen McEachen is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people cope with stress, grief, depression, anxiety, and life transitions. She focuses on practical steps to get through hard moments and regain a sense of balance. Maureen brings a calm, steady presence to sessions and listens for what matters most to each person.
She has just over ten years of clinical experience and has worked in both California and the Washington, DC area.
Background and approach
Early in her career she concentrated on mental health and depression and later added specialty work in hospice and palliative care to support people facing serious illness and loss. That background shapes how she approaches grief and end-of-life concerns. Her style is straightforward and client-centered.
She helps people name what they are feeling, learn small skills to manage stress and sleep, and make values-based choices that fit their daily life. Sessions can include mindfulness practices, thought-focused work, and exercises that increase emotional connection and coping. Maureen often helps with family-related concerns, caregiver stress, addiction challenges, and relationship or intimacy issues.
She also works with people dealing with chronic illness, aging concerns, or the isolation that can come with life changes. She supports LGBT clients and those managing compassion fatigue or first responder stress. Sessions are offered in English and are available by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
Maureen is a California-based clinician holding the LCSW credential and also has a LICSW credential from Washington, DC.

Online support
How Maureen’s Approaches Translate to Online Care
Maureen often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in her online practice. ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and then choose actions that match their values, which can be useful for grief, anxiety, and life transitions. Client-centered work focuses on empathic listening and helping the person lead the conversation, which supports emotional processing and clearer decision making.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Maureen will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. She adapts techniques to fit the situation so therapy is collaborative and practical rather than prescriptive.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video lets people use visual cues for deeper conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat or text messaging can fit short check-ins or moments when writing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to keep therapy going around work, caregiving, or health demands.
