About Eileen
Eileen Madden is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on helping people carry less weight from worry, grief, and difficult relationships. She speaks English and Spanish and brings 13 years of clinical experience to each session. Her style centers on helping people notice painful feelings without letting those feelings define who they are.
Eileen uses clear, down-to-earth language in sessions. She helps people name emotions and learn small body-based practices that calm tension.
Background and approach
She also encourages accepting hard feelings as protective signals so people can choose responses that fit their values. Her background includes an undergraduate degree and a masters degree from Boston College. She has worked in outpatient settings and in programs that support children and adults across a wide age range.
Her clinical work has often focused on anxiety, sadness, and anger. Outside of therapy, she values movement and nourishment. She teaches boxing, runs regularly, and follows a plant-forward diet.
Travel and service work have shaped her perspective, including study abroad in Ecuador and service trips to El Salvador and regions of the United States. Eileen brings an existential perspective that invites questions about meaning and connection. She combines that with practical approaches like acceptance and commitment strategies, attachment-focused work, client-centered attention, and cognitive tools.
Sessions aim to help people reconnect to what matters and make manageable changes in daily life.

Online support
Approaches that translate to online work
Eileen often blends Existential Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in ways that work well online. Existential Therapy helps people reflect on meaning, values, and connection; it’s useful for life transitions, grief, and questions about purpose. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches simple skills to notice thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match personal values, which helps with anxiety, depression, and coping with change.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Eileen will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. The process is collaborative and can shift over time based on what helps you make steady progress.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is helpful for deeper conversations and exercises that use visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in fits a work break. Chat and messaging work well for quick notes, ongoing support between sessions, or when written reflection feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and access consistent support.
