About Theyazan
Theyazan Kohaif uses practical, evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage stress and emotional struggles. He is a licensed clinical social worker with a decade of experience and brings a straightforward, compassionate style to sessions. Theyazan works to create clear goals and realistic steps so people feel less stuck and more able to cope.
Theyazan has spent 10 years supporting people through anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship concerns. He also helps with self-esteem, motivation, grief, addiction-related issues, intimacy-related problems, bipolar mood management, and coping with life changes.
How Theyazan works
He adapts conversations and plans to match each person’s needs rather than offering the same approach to everyone. People often come with pressure from parenting, family tensions, or stress at work. He also addresses concerns related to abandonment, attachment, adoption and foster care history, aging, chronic illness, and body image.
Additional focus areas include kink and alternative sex culture, codependency, commitment issues, and challenges linked to autism and personality differences. Theyazan holds a Master of Social Work-level licence as an LMSW and is also credentialed as an LCSW in Indiana. He offers sessions in English and accepts clients in Michigan and internationally.
Sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. To begin, someone selects the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules a time that works with the therapist’s availability. The subscription used for sessions can be canceled at any time.

Online support options
How evidence-based approaches work online
Theyazan uses proven therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach is goal-focused cognitive work that helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety and depression. Another approach emphasizes trauma-informed care, which helps people process difficult experiences at a pace that feels manageable and builds coping skills for stress and triggers.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions start with an assessment of concerns and priorities, and the plan is adjusted over time based on what helps most.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face connection when fuller interaction is helpful. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief check-ins and ongoing support easier to fit into a busy day. These options make therapy more flexible and accessible for different schedules and life situations.
