How therapy approaches translate to online care

Maysun draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT often uses concrete exercises and homework to test new ways of thinking, which can fit well into short, focused sessions.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which supports noticing difficult thoughts or feelings without letting them dictate actions. ACT emphasizes values and small steps toward a meaningful life, useful for stress, anxiety, and anger management.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try different techniques, and adjust based on what helps most. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions to the client’s needs and preferences rather than relying on a single method.

For practical matters, confirm the session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific options. Many people find online work helpful because it can fit into a busy week, reduce travel time, and make it easier to keep short, regular check-ins. Others prefer in-person options when available. The first meetings can focus on deciding which way of working and which techniques feel most useful for daily life.
