Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Mirta commonly draws on client-centered therapy to guide sessions in a respectful, empathetic manner that focuses on the client's own values and goals. This approach helps people feel heard and supported while they explore emotional concerns, life transitions, and relationship issues.
She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT offers practical tools and skills that are useful for coping with mood changes, trauma symptoms, and everyday challenges.
Motivational interviewing is another method Mirta employs when clients are working through ambivalence about change, such as with addictions or lifestyle shifts. It emphasizes collaboration and helps clients find their own reasons and motivation for making sustainable changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Mirta works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors care over time, adapting techniques as progress and priorities evolve.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - which makes it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, manage transportation or mobility constraints, and maintain continuity of care across different life demands. Licensed professionals can provide effective support through these formats while working with clients to set realistic goals and monitor progress.
