About Brian Zayman
Brian Zayman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - LCSW - with 26 years of professional experience helping adults and couples navigate emotional and interpersonal challenges. He holds a Master of Social Work from the Silberman School of Social Work in Manhattan and has worked across a range of settings addressing concerns such as depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, relationship conflict, addictions, and vocational stress.
He draws on a mix of clinical approaches including client-centered therapy, narrative therapy, psychodynamic work, solution-focused techniques, and Internal Family Systems to tailor treatment to each person’s needs. That variety allows him to collaborate with clients on practical coping skills, mood regulation, decision making, self-esteem, and problem solving while also attending to deeper patterns that influence behavior and relationships.
Brian encourages active participation in therapy by inviting clients to set their own goals and track progress toward them. He attends to multiple dimensions of wellbeing - mental, physical, and spiritual - and maintains an open, transparent, and nonjudgmental therapeutic stance in sessions. He works with adults 18 and older as well as couples, and he welcomes discussion of topics that some may consider difficult or off-limits.
Over the course of his career he has developed and adapted techniques to help clients gain insight, shift perspectives, and move forward. Clients have shared that his style supports greater self-understanding, thoughtful reflection, and meaningful progress. His calendar has traditionally included weekday early morning start times (as early as 6:00) and daytime hours to accommodate different schedules.
Brian practices in North Carolina and conducts sessions in English. He is a licensed LCSW and brings decades of experience working with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma, depression, addictions, family dynamics, anger, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions. Additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment issues, caregiver stress, body image, and a range of personality and mood-related challenges.

Many people ask whether meeting with a therapist remotely can make a meaningful difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to offer comparable benefits to traditional in-person sessions for many individuals.One major strength of remote care is flexibility. Clients can connect in the way that fits their life - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which makes it easier to fit regular sessions into busy schedules or find a format that feels most comfortable.
Licensed professionals who offer remote services bring the same therapeutic models and training they use in person, and clients may switch therapists if they need a different fit. For people balancing work, family, caregiving, or mobility concerns, online therapy expands access to skilled therapists and can support steady, ongoing progress toward personal goals.
