About Maysun
Maysun Elnihum is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, bipolar symptoms, addictions, and low self-esteem. She also supports those coping with grief, anger, career change, ADHD, and relationship or family concerns.
Her approach is straightforward and conversational. She uses Existential Therapy to help people examine meaning and personal values. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness to address unhelpful thinking and build practical coping skills.
Background and approach
Maysun has eight years of clinical experience in both independent practice and psychiatric settings. That background gives her experience with a range of concerns and with people at different points in their recovery. She aims to make sessions feel like a useful, goal-oriented conversation rather than a lecture.
In sessions she encourages honest talk about feelings, patterns, and choices. She mixes problem-focused work with space to reflect on what matters most to each person. Together with a client she looks for small, doable steps toward better daily functioning and clearer priorities.
Therapy can include short-term strategies and longer exploration of values and identity. Maysun offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Online support
How Maysun Uses Thoughtful Approaches Online
Existential Therapy focuses on questions of meaning, choice, and values. It helps people facing big life changes, loss, or a sense of stuckness by naming what matters and testing how choices match those values.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) blends acceptance and action. It teaches skills to notice difficult thoughts without getting ruled by them, then take small steps toward valued goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior, and uses clear strategies to change unhelpful patterns and relieve symptoms like anxiety or depression.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist treats that as a collaborative process, trying methods and adjusting based on the client’s goals and preferences. Clients often combine reflective existential work with practical ACT or CBT exercises as fits their needs.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper interaction, phone sessions require less bandwidth, live chat can be used for brief check-ins, and text-based messaging is useful for ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving, or other commitments.
