Mayra Beas, LCSW

Mayra Beas is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in California. She brings eight years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and depression. Her work focuses on practical steps people can use day to day. She meets people where they are and emphasizes collaboration and respect.

She listens first and then helps people identify patterns that get in the way. Mayra uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thoughts and change unhelpful behaviors. She also draws on client-centered principles to follow each person’s pace and priorities. Solution-focused techniques are used to set small, achievable goals and track progress.

Sessions typically include clear, simple tools for coping with panic attacks, handling relationship friction, and reducing overwhelming worry. Mayra helps people practice new responses between sessions so skills stick. She pays attention to communication problems, feelings of guilt and shame, and major life transitions.

Her style is warm and direct. She aims to create a space where people feel heard and can try different strategies without judgement. The work is collaborative - the people she meets help shape what happens in therapy.

Mayra offers phone, video, live chat, and text-based sessions to fit different schedules. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability.

How Mayra’s Approaches Work Online

Mayra blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered techniques when working remotely. CBT helps people identify worrying thoughts and test new behaviors, which can reduce panic symptoms and persistent anxiety. Client-centered work means sessions follow the person’s own goals and pace, with the therapist listening and reflecting to clarify what matters most.

She also uses solution-focused methods to set small, practical goals and measure progress between meetings. That approach is useful for communication problems, moments of intense guilt or shame, and concrete life changes where quick, doable steps make a difference. Choosing the right mix of methods is a shared process; she discusses options and adapts the plan based on each person’s needs and preferences.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video is often used for deeper conversations and skill practice, while phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick reflections, brief coaching, and keeping momentum between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and try approaches that match each person’s comfort and schedule.
