About May

May Meyer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Pennsylvania with 15 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and parenting concerns, depression, trauma and abuse, and other life changes. She uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing in her work.

She helps people sort through what feels most urgent right now. Sessions are practical and focused on understanding patterns, improving coping, and setting small steps that fit day-to-day life. She listens for what each person needs and adjusts the approach accordingly.

Her background includes long-term clinical work with adults facing mood and behavior challenges, grief, and identity-related concerns. She blends talk-based techniques with specific skill practice. EMDR and CBT are used when they match the goals of the person in front of her.

She also addresses issues that often come with parenting and family roles, such as caregiver stress, communication problems, and fatherhood matters. Other focus areas include ADHD, bipolar concerns, eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, and isolation.

Sessions support people working through relationship and intimacy-related concerns, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and career or money stress. She pays attention to how family of origin and early abandonment experiences can shape current problems.

May conducts sessions in English and works with adults who want practical, goal-oriented steps as well as deeper processing when needed. Prospective clients are asked to confirm current session formats before booking.

How her approaches translate to remote work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's concerns and priorities. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflecting what matters most and helping set practical next steps. This approach is useful for relationship concerns, parenting stress, and ongoing mood challenges.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches specific skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It often involves homework and brief skill practice between sessions, which can be easier to track remotely. CBT supports anxiety, depression, sleep and eating difficulties, and anger management.

EMDR is a structured approach for processing traumatic memories and intense emotional reactions. When used, it is integrated with other techniques and aimed at reducing the intensity of distress tied to specific memories.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and then adjust methods together. Clients and the therapist decide collaboratively whether to emphasize skills-based work, processing, or both.

The biography did not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. In general, remote sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let people complete between-session practice while keeping regular contact with a licensed professional.
