About Maureen

LCSW-C (Maryland) and LICSW (District of Columbia) clinician with 10 years of practice experience. Maureen A-Ngeh helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, anger, career concerns, bipolar disorder, ADHD, self-esteem problems, and life changes.

She frames problems as interruptions to daily life that can be reduced with practical work in therapy. Sessions focus on listening first, then building a clear plan. Maureen emphasizes interactive conversation and collaborative problem solving rather than long lectures.

Her methods draw on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills, Motivational Interviewing, Client-Centered Therapy, and Narrative Therapy. She uses these approaches to identify values, change unhelpful patterns, and build coping skills for everyday demands.

Maureen has experience across settings including community and hospital work. That background informs her focus on real-world strategies people can use between sessions. She aims to help clients notice small changes that reduce stress and improve functioning.

People who want straightforward, practical sessions that mix skill-building and reflective conversation tend to fit her style. She works in Maryland and holds the LCSW-C and LICSW credentials listed above. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are not accepted.

How her approaches guide remote sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while accepting uncomfortable thoughts. ACT is useful for anxiety, stress, and navigating life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to change mood and functioning. CBT is often used for depression, anxiety, and managing symptoms day to day. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness; these tools help when strong emotions or impulsive reactions get in the way of goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those aims. This is a collaborative process that can be adjusted as progress and needs become clearer.

Specific session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to schedule brief check-ins, fit sessions around work or childcare, or choose sessions that do not require video if bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals often use remote sessions to focus on skill practice, problem solving, and follow-up between meetings.
