About Maureen

Maureen Mccullum is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 15 years of experience practicing in Pennsylvania. She works with people facing depression, anxiety, stress, anger, addictions, and career or parenting challenges. Maureen also helps those coping with grief, trauma, ADHD, and major life changes.

Her background includes a mix of practical, talk-based methods. She uses cognitive behavioral ideas to look at patterns of thinking and behavior. She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing to support change.

In sessions she focuses on clear, respectful conversation. She listens, asks concrete questions, and offers exercises you can try between meetings. Expect guidance on managing emotions, reducing impulsivity, and handling difficult interactions with others.

Maureen describes her style as client-centered and straightforward. She highlights strengths and suggests small, doable steps. When appropriate she combines skills practice with reflection about values and goals.

Practical matters are discussed up front. She works with individuals on scheduling and planning next steps. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment through the site's online process.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Maureen draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take small actions that match those values. ACT often focuses on noticing thoughts and committing to practical steps despite difficult feelings.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thinking and behavior patterns that keep problems going. CBT offers concrete tools for changing unhelpful reactions and building alternative habits.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Maureen will work with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences, and she adjusts plans based on what helps most in regular check-ins.

Confirm the exact session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when days are tight. Discuss scheduling and any practical needs during the matching questionnaire and the first appointment so sessions are arranged to work with everyday life.
