About Maureen
Maureen Mccullum is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 15 years of experience based in Pennsylvania. She helps people facing anxiety, depression, grief, parenting stress, and addiction. Maureen also supports those coping with trauma, ADHD, and major life changes.
Her background includes long practice with a wide range of concerns, from eating and anger issues to career frustration and chronic illness. Maureen draws on methods that help people build practical skills and notice what matters to them.
How Maureen works
She shapes each conversation to the person in the room rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. In sessions she focuses on clear goals and steady progress. Maureen uses mindfulness and acceptance ideas alongside cognitive tools to reduce unhelpful thinking and increase valued action.
Motivational interviewing helps when someone is unsure about change or feels stuck. She aims for a calm, respectful tone and believes in gentle guidance rather than pushing. Maureen helps people recognize strengths, improve communication, and find manageable steps forward when problems feel overwhelming.
Practical matters are discussed openly. Maureen offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their schedule and comfort. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a time. Maureen works with people in Pennsylvania and conducts sessions in English.

How Maureen’s approaches work online
Maureen uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people spot unhelpful thought patterns and try different behaviors. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and problems like low self-esteem. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters most and take steps toward those values even when emotions are hard to handle. ACT can be helpful for grief, stress, and life transitions.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Maureen will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide whether to focus on thought tools, acceptance and values work, mindfulness practice, or a mix of methods over the course of therapy.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and practice of skills. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief updates, reflection between sessions, or when writing feels more comfortable than speaking. These options give flexibility for people juggling work, caregiving, or health concerns.
