Gretchen Echegoyen
MSW, LCSW
Gretchen Echegoyen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker at CPA Counseling’s Philadelphia office in Center City. She is bilingual in English and Spanish and specializes in life transitions — helping children, teens, young adults, and adults move through major change with confidence, shed unhealthy coping patterns, and build a life that feels purposeful and authentic.
Gretchen earned her Master of Social Work from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology in Washington, DC. Her clinical background spans juvenile detention, in-home therapy, and outpatient settings, giving her a broad foundation and a genuine ability to meet clients wherever they are. She works extensively with anxiety, depression, ADHD, and trauma, with a particular focus on the existential questions that surface during periods of transition.
Her approach centers on empowering clients to face their reality with courage and openness rather than avoidance — using CBT, strengths-based frameworks, and practical coping tools. Gretchen believes that becoming your authentic self is both the challenge and the goal of therapy.
Gretchen sees clients in-person in Philadelphia and via telehealth across Pennsylvania. She is currently accepting new clients.
