Maureen Mccullum, LPC

Maureen Mccullum is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 15 years of clinical experience. She practices in Pennsylvania and focuses on helping people navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, parenting stress, grief, and ADHD. Maureen meets clients with patience and straightforward guidance to help them begin making changes.

She often helps people who are coping with trauma, emotional ups and downs, and end-of-life concerns. Her style is warm and respectful. She listens first, then offers practical suggestions and occasional gentle prompts to try something different.

Maureen blends several approaches depending on a person’s needs. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. She pairs that with acceptance and commitment ideas that focus on values and small steps toward goals.

Mindfulness is woven into sessions to help people notice what is happening in the moment without getting pulled into it. Motivational interviewing is used when someone needs extra help finding the motivation to change difficult habits or patterns.

She explains options clearly and adapts each session to the person in front of her. Maureen aims to help people recognize strengths, build coping skills, and make manageable changes that fit their life. If someone is ready to begin, she guides them through the next steps toward scheduling and planning care.

How her approaches translate to online counseling

Maureen uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice thoughts and test small behavior changes. This approach is practical and works well for anxiety, depression, and stress by setting clear steps and trying them between sessions.

She also uses acceptance and commitment therapy, which focuses on values and committed action. ACT helps people decide what matters most and take small, consistent steps toward those values even when feelings are difficult to manage.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Maureen talks with each person about goals and preferences and then chooses techniques together. The plan can change as needs shift, so therapy remains a collaborative process.

The original biography did not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let someone choose quieter or lower-bandwidth ways to connect when needed, and sessions can be scheduled to work around school, work, or caregiving duties.
