About Kecia
Kecia McCullough is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with 20 years of professional experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, low self-esteem, motivation challenges, and depression. Kecia works with adults carrying guilt or shame as part of broader emotional concerns.
Kecia’s sessions focus on clear conversation about what is happening now. She listens to how guilt or shame shows up in daily life and how it affects choices and relationships. Clients can expect straightforward reflection and practical steps to test different ways of responding to difficult feelings.
Her approach emphasizes building skills for communication and managing strong emotions. She addresses topics such as abandonment, forgiveness, isolation, and impulsivity alongside relationship or life transitions like divorce and midlife shifts. Money worries and sexual identity issues are also areas she brings into sessions when relevant.
Kecia draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, and social anxiety. She talks with people about how past experiences and current patterns connect, then practices new behaviors in session. The work is conversational and action-oriented.
Kecia offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to begin. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and costs vary with location.
How evidence-based techniques translate to online sessions
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are used to help people understand and change patterns that keep them stuck. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments. This helps reduce worry, self-criticism, and avoidance that often accompany guilt or shame.Another approach works with emotions directly by naming and tolerating strong feelings while practicing new behaviors. This kind of work is useful for grief, intense shame, impulsivity, and relationship conflicts where feelings can lead to reactive choices.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels doable. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust them as progress is made.
