Maureen Mccullum

Maureen Mccullum is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 15 years of experience. She practices in Pennsylvania and brings a calm, respectful manner to sessions. Maureen focuses on helping people facing grief, trauma, parenting challenges, stress, and ADHD. She supports people who are managing life changes and decisions related to career, relationships, or end-of-life concerns.

Her style is accepting and down-to-earth. She meets people where they are and helps them notice strengths they might miss. Conversations are practical and aimed at small, doable changes rather than long lectures. Clients can expect gentle guidance and clear feedback during work together.

Maureen blends a few core approaches when forming a plan. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and build new habits. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and taking steps that matter. Mindfulness practices are used to steady attention and reduce reactivity.

She adapts the session flow to each person’s needs and goals. That might mean short skill-building exercises some weeks and deeper conversations other weeks. Maureen outlines availability and works with people to find appointment times that fit.

If someone is preparing for tough conversations, grieving a loss, or facing chronic stress, Maureen offers steady support and practical tools. She encourages people to take small steps toward what matters to them. The first step is completing the short matching questionnaire and scheduling an initial time to talk.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take concrete steps toward those values, even when feelings are difficult. It is useful for grief, life transitions, and situations where someone wants clearer direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm during stressful moments.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Maureen will listen to goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. Clients and the therapist work together to choose practical steps and skills that fit a person’s life and preferences.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for focused check-ins during a lunch break or between commitments. Some approaches, like brief CBT exercises or ACT values work, adapt well to shorter sessions or follow-up check-ins. Discussing availability and preferred session length during the matching process helps ensure sessions meet everyday needs.
