Evidence-based approaches for online therapy

Mariana draws on cognitive approaches and an integrative neuropsychological perspective to guide online work. Cognitive methods focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical exercises, which can reduce anxiety and low mood. An integrative approach blends these techniques with attention to how biology, relationships and life experience shape difficulties, which is useful for complex problems like attachment issues or coping with big life changes.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try out techniques in early sessions and adjust methods to match what helps most. Clients play an active role in selecting tasks and homework so the plan fits their priorities and pace.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls work well for deeper conversations and visual cues, while phone sessions suit people with limited bandwidth or who prefer not to use video. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing support between sessions or when someone needs to fit therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care across time zones and different routines.
