How Maya’s Approaches Work Online

Maya uses client-centered therapy to follow each person’s priorities, listen deeply, and shape sessions around what matters most to the client. This approach helps when someone wants a supportive space to sort priorities and define goals.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. CBT is practical for anxiety, low mood, sleep issues, and stress that gets in the way of daily life.

Mindfulness practices are offered to help reduce reactivity, improve sleep, and build steadier attention during stressful moments. These techniques are simple to practice between sessions and fit well with online formats.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Maya will work with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the focus as progress is made.

Before starting online therapy, confirm the current session options, scheduling arrangements, and fees. Discuss what will help you take part comfortably and how to fit appointments around everyday commitments. Agree on the next steps with the therapist so you know what to expect.
