About Mayra

Mayra Dominguez is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 26 years of experience who draws on cognitive behavioral techniques alongside client-centered and mindfulness-informed practices.

Background and approach

She helps people examine patterns of thinking and behavior, develop practical coping skills, and build emotional awareness to address concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, and low self-esteem.

Her work also covers career transitions, relationship and family challenges, grief, sleep difficulties, anger, and substance-related issues, with additional attention to topics like attachment, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and blended-family dynamics. Mayra emphasizes an empathetic, culturally aware stance that respects each person's background while encouraging growth and clearer communication.

Fluent in English and Spanish and licensed in Florida (FL LCSW SW8342) as well as Arizona (AZ LCSW LCSW-21297), she brings a pragmatic, strengths-based focus to therapy. Mayra offers a collaborative environment where clients can explore values, set goals, and learn skills for lasting change, with session formats that include video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging.

CBT, ACT, and Mindfulness for Online Care

Mayra uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop concrete skills for reducing anxiety, improving mood, and changing behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy offers tools for clarifying values and learning to accept difficult emotions while committing to meaningful action. Mindfulness-based work cultivates present-moment awareness and stress reduction through practical attention and breathing practices.

Determining which approach or combination of approaches fits best is a collaborative process. The therapist will work together with each client to explore goals, preferences, and day-to-day challenges, adjusting methods as progress unfolds and needs change.

Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, and other commitments, and allow clients to access evidence-informed therapeutic tools from their preferred location.
