Jon Boschen, LCSW | Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Maine

---

Most people who come to therapy aren’t looking for vague advice — they’re looking for clarity.

If your mind doesn’t slow down, if you replay conversations, overthink decisions, or feel constantly on edge, you’re not alone. These patterns are often driven by anxiety and stress responses that can be understood and changed.

I’m Jon Boschen, LCSW, a psychotherapist in Maine. I work with adults to help them understand what’s happening underneath their thoughts and reactions — and give them practical ways to shift them so they can feel more steady, clear, and in control.

Therapy doesn’t have to feel vague or like you’re just talking in circles.

My approach is structured and focused. We look at what’s actually happening underneath your thoughts, reactions, and patterns and then work to change them in a practical way. That might mean understanding why your mind won’t shut off, why you default to worst-case thinking, or why certain situations trigger stress or shutdown. The goal isn’t perfection; it’s helping you feel more steady, clear, and in control of your thoughts and responses in real life.

This isn’t about staying stuck in insight; it’s about knowing what to do with it.

“LCSW” stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker - a designation that reflects advanced clinical training, supervised experience, licensure, and ongoing professional oversight.

Working with a licensed clinical social worker means:

• Therapy grounded in evidence-based approaches 
• Adherence to professional ethics and state licensing standards 
• Training in trauma, mental health, and behavioral change 
• A focus on both emotional insight and practical, real-world progress 

For clients, this means working with someone trained not just to listen, but to help you understand patterns, regulate your responses, and create meaningful, lasting change.

This approach may be a good fit if you:

• Feel stuck in cycles of overthinking or second-guessing yourself 
• Experience chronic stress or anxiety that doesn’t seem to shut off 
• Find yourself reacting strongly but aren’t sure why 
• Want more than just talking — you want direction and change 
• Are navigating life transitions, burnout, or emotional overwhelm 

Many people searching for “Jon Boschen LCSW” or looking for a therapist in Maine aren’t just looking to talk — they’re looking for a clearer path forward.

I provide therapy for adults dealing with anxiety, chronic stress and trauma, helping adults in Maine understand how past experiences continue to impact the present including themes of: 

• Past trauma and trauma-related responses 
• Overthinking and mental fatigue 
• Burnout and emotional exhaustion 
• Life transitions and adjustment challenges 
• Relationship patterns and communication struggles

Sessions focus on helping you better understand your internal experience while building the tools to shift it.

Many people who struggle with anxiety notice patterns like replaying conversations, second-guessing what they said, or feeling mentally stuck long after an interaction ends.
