About Maureen
Maureen Kirchhoff is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and CSW with 40 years of experience in clinical practice in Wyoming. She works with adults 21 and older on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and low self-esteem. Maureen also addresses relationship-related patterns, including codependency and commitment issues, but she sees only individual clients at this time.
Her approach centers on listening closely to each person's story and responding in plain language. She uses client-centered methods to build trust and help people notice what matters to them. Mindfulness techniques are offered to manage overwhelming feelings and to increase calm. Narrative and psychodynamic ideas are used to understand how past events and family history shape present choices.
Maureen has helped people cope with caregiving stress, chronic illness and pain, aging concerns, and isolation. She also supports people working through body image, guilt and shame, and unresolved family of origin issues. Her work can include faith-based counseling when clients wish to include those beliefs in sessions.
Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings. Conversations often include setting boundaries, improving communication, and identifying personal goals. The therapist adapts pacing to each person's needs and preference.
To begin, prospective clients use the site's matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Maureen practices in Wyoming and conducts work in English for adults 21 and older.
How sessions work
How Maureen’s approaches translate to online sessions
Maureen draws on client-centered therapy to focus sessions on what matters most to each person. That approach means listening first and shaping conversations around a client's priorities. Mindfulness therapy is used to teach simple attention and breathing practices that help manage anxiety and stress in daily life. Narrative therapy helps people tell and reframe their life stories so patterns like people-pleasing or codependent behavior become clearer and easier to change.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision can shift over time as progress is reviewed and new challenges arise.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people use mindfulness practices between sessions more readily. The therapist and client will agree on a practical plan that fits daily life and goals.
