CLINICAL psychologist
Mai Elbassosy, MA
I’m a clinical psychologist with experience dating back to 2008. I work with individuals, couples, families, and groups, offering psychotherapy that blends emotional depth with evidence-based approaches to support healing, growth, and connection.
I’m a Certified Emotionally Focused Therapist (EFT) and currently a Supervisor-in-Training. I also serve as a Board Member of EGYCEFT – the Egyptian Community for Emotionally Focused Therapy.
My therapeutic approach integrates multiple evidence-based models, rooted in deep emotional awareness and respect for each person’s unique journey.
