Mary Ellen Cullity, LCSW

Mary Ellen Cullity is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with ten years of clinical experience. She supports people coping with grief, loss, anxiety, depression, and the everyday stress of parenting young children. Her manner is warm and nonjudgmental, and she focuses on what a person needs right now.

She has worked in maternal and child health, early intervention, and hospice settings. That background shapes how she listens to grief, caregiving strain, and family challenges. She pays attention to how past family patterns affect present choices and relationships.

In sessions she uses client-centered methods that start with your priorities and move at your pace. Cognitive behavioral techniques are available to help with unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness exercises are used to bring attention back to the present and reduce overwhelm.

Mary Ellen also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused strategies to help clarify goals and take practical steps forward. She aims to help people recognize small changes that build better routines and relationships. Many clients come for help with parenting stress, relationship conflicts, career questions, and coping with major life transitions.

She practices in New Hampshire and conducts sessions in English. If you are managing health-related challenges or the stress of caregiving while parenting, she can help you sort priorities and find workable next steps.

How her approaches translate to online care

Mary Ellen uses client-centered therapy to focus on each person's priorities and values. That means sessions begin where the client is, with the therapist listening and helping set the direction of work. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety or depression symptoms.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods fit current needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean trying a mindfulness exercise in session, then adjusting based on what helps most.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking since they are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit care into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that works better for a day at work or during caregiving. It can also let someone use audio only when video would be difficult, or schedule sessions around a child's routine. Licensed professionals help tailor the practical setup to each person's life and goals.
