About May Brown
She frames therapy as an ongoing part of self-care rather than a last resort, helping clients make sense of everyday pressures as well as major life changes. Her background includes facilitating both individual and group therapy in acute mental health settings, which informs a practical, compassionate style that aims to build resilience and clearer understanding of personal patterns.
May works with a wide range of issues including parenting and blended family dynamics, codependency and commitment concerns, communication problems, isolation and midlife transition. Clients explore topics such as guilt and shame, family of origin wounds, multicultural stressors and career-related challenges, all within a collaborative therapeutic relationship.
May created her practice to be accessible for people new to therapy and for those who find in-person attendance difficult. She welcomes conversation about needs and goals and supports clients in finding a way forward that fits their life.

Approaches that guide online support and therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current emotional patterns and close connections. It helps people understand attachment styles, improve trust and intimacy, and address relationship difficulties that stem from past bonds.
Client-Centered Therapy places the person at the center of the process, using empathy, acceptance and active listening to help clients explore feelings and values. This approach is well suited to people working on self-esteem, life transitions and finding clearer direction.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness. It is particularly helpful for overwhelming anxiety, emotional reactivity and difficulties in relationships.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. May works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences, and adapts the work as understanding grows over time.
Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging provides flexibility for different schedules and situations. These formats make it easier to attend therapy from home, balance appointments with work or family life, and maintain continuity of care across busy periods, while still working with registered professionals and therapists to address meaningful change.
