About Maya
Maya Daley is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California. She focuses on everyday stresses that get in the way of feeling steady, like anxiety, work strain, and major life changes.
Background and approach
Maya aims to help people regain a sense of direction and calm through practical conversations and steady support. She draws on several evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood concerns, panic, and issues with self-esteem.
Sessions often focus on small, realistic steps clients can try between meetings. Maya pays attention to how attachment, body image, guilt, and control issues shape daily life and relationships.
Maya has worked in clinical settings with veterans and people facing substance use challenges, and she has several years supporting young people with anxiety and depression. That clinical background informs a straightforward style that emphasizes clarity and doable strategies.
She keeps plans realistic so progress feels manageable. People who come to Maya often want help coping with life transitions, sorting out career stress, or rebuilding self-worth.
Conversations aim to identify patterns, practice new ways of responding, and build habits that stick. The work moves at a pace the client finds comfortable.
Maya offers sessions through video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging. Many clients find the variety of formats helps therapy fit into busy schedules and everyday life.
Evidence-based approaches for online therapy
Many of Maya's sessions use clear, evidence-based techniques that focus on present problems and practical change. One common approach is short-term behavioral work that helps people identify patterns and try different responses to anxiety or panic. This involves setting small experiments and tracking what changes.Another helpful method is skills-based work for mood and self-esteem. These sessions teach concrete skills for managing strong feelings, improving self-talk, and handling guilt or control issues. The goal is to build habits that make day-to-day life easier and more predictable.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. Maya collaborates with clients to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and daily life. She will check in and adjust techniques as needed so the plan stays useful and realistic.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation for in-depth work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when clients prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging support shorter check-ins, homework review, and ongoing encouragement between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, and school schedules.
