About May

She focuses on anxiety and stress as well as related concerns like low self-esteem, motivation, and relationship difficulties. May aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable and straightforward.
She uses a client-centered way of working that puts each person’s goals first. Sessions are conversational and practical.
Background and approach
May listens closely, helps sort out what matters most, and supports small changes that add up over time. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is part of her toolbox for people who want concrete strategies to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and mindfulness practices are offered to help manage intense emotions and build steadier coping habits.
Motivational interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change when motivation feels stuck. May has guided people through grief, trauma and abuse, parenting stress, career transitions, sleep problems, and ADHD-related struggles. She also addresses issues tied to identity, including LGBT concerns and challenges around intimacy and connection.
Sessions can be conversational check-ins or hands-on skill practice depending on what a person needs. May works to create a nonjudgmental space where people feel heard and can try new ways of handling stress and anxiety.
Therapeutic approaches for online anxiety care
May draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness-based tools to help people facing anxiety and stress. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying different behaviors to reduce worry and avoidant patterns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention practices that help reduce reactivity and build steadier focus in daily life.She also uses elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy when emotion regulation or strong mood swings are a concern. DBT skills teach concrete ways to tolerate distress, regulate intense feelings, and improve interpersonal effectiveness in tense moments. Together these approaches offer practical steps and coping skills rather than vague advice.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. That conversation guides whether sessions emphasize skills practice, thought work, or motivational conversations.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging support brief check-ins, ongoing coaching, and skill reinforcement between longer sessions.
