About Maura
Maura Skehan is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with eight years of clinical experience focused on grief, addiction, depression, anger, and coping with life changes. She works with adults who are facing loss, major transitions, or ongoing mood struggles. Sessions are offered in English and aim to help people navigate immediate problems and plan for next steps.
She helps clients manage grief and loss by talking through what has changed and what matters now. With addictions and mood concerns she focuses on practical coping skills and small, achievable steps. For anger and relationship fallout she emphasizes understanding triggers and finding new ways to respond.
Her practice is informed by evidence-based therapeutic techniques alongside person-centered and strengths-based perspectives. That means sessions are collaborative and built around each person's resources and goals. Maura uses tried methods to teach skills and to reframe patterns that keep people stuck.
She also addresses caregiver stress, divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and self-love concerns. Work on these topics can include behavior-focused exercises, emotional processing, and problem-solving for daily stressors. The pace and focus are adjusted to what the client needs in session.
Maura asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first appointment. The approach is practical and straightforward: talk, try techniques, review what helps, and adjust the plan as needed.

How therapeutic approaches are used online
Maura works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques alongside person-centered and strengths-based perspectives. Cognitive and behavioral methods focus on concrete skills and behavior changes such as coping strategies for mood, relapse prevention steps for addiction, and practical ways to manage anger. These techniques teach actions to try between sessions and ways to track progress.Brief grief-focused work helps people talk through losses, make meaning, and identify routines that support daily functioning. Skills for caregiver stress and separation issues emphasize planning, boundary-setting, and reducing overwhelm through small problem-solving steps.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will review your needs, goals, and preferences and recommend techniques to try. Sessions include reviewing what helps and adjusting methods together rather than sticking with a single plan from the start.
