About Hyra
Hyra combines talking with body-centered skills from her background as a massage therapist, yoga instructor, and personal trainer. She listens actively and uses empathy to help people see what’s keeping them stuck. Sessions focus on concrete steps clients can try between meetings.
Her approach blends client-centered care with emotionally focused and mindfulness techniques. That means she pays attention to feelings in the moment, helps people understand patterns in their relationships, and teaches ways to calm the body when emotions run high. She also uses motivational and solution-focused methods to set small, achievable goals.
With four years of clinical experience, Hyra works with a wide range of concerns including intimacy-related issues, parenting stress, ADHD, compassion fatigue, chronic illness, and relationship and communication problems. She also supports people coping with trauma, abandonment wounds, and forgiveness work.
Hyra asks clients to pick goals and then co-creates a plan to reach them. People who prefer a conversational, active style and practical tools often find her approach a good match. To begin, follow the site’s process to match and schedule a session.

Therapeutic approaches and online work that fit your life
Hyra frequently uses client-centered therapy, which centers on listening and responding to what matters most to the client. This approach helps people clarify goals and feel heard during sessions. She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) to identify and change unhelpful emotional patterns in relationships, useful for intimacy and communication concerns.Mindfulness therapy is part of her toolkit as well, offering simple practices to bring attention to bodily sensations and reduce reactivity. These techniques can help with anger, anxiety, and stress by teaching people how to notice emotions before they escalate.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Hyra will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She often combines listening, practical exercises, and goal-focused homework so progress happens between sessions as well as during them.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Talk with Hyra during the match and scheduling steps to identify the best format and plan for your needs.
