More about Maysun

  • 8 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

My name is Maysun and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas.

I have had the honor of working with children and adults in a private practice setting and at psychiatric facilities. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Brief Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing.

Opening up to a therapist might make you feel nervous, but it can be helpful to gain new perspectives and insight to your thoughts and behaviors. We aren't often taught healthy ways to cope with life's challenges, and I can provide a safe space to work through trauma, relationships, anxiety, negative thinking patterns, and other obstacles. There are many ways you can achieve your goals, and therapy can be one of them!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
