Evidence-based approaches for online care
Many of Ivy Mairura's sessions draw on proven, practical methods that teach new skills and change unhelpful patterns. Cognitive approaches focus on identifying and shifting thought patterns that worsen anxiety or low mood; they help people test unhelpful beliefs and try new behaviors. Behavioral strategies emphasize small, doable actions that rebuild routine, increase pleasant activities, and reduce avoidance that feeds depression.She also uses coaching-style techniques to set clear goals and make step-by-step plans for change. This helps with life transitions, career decisions, and improving communication. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process - the therapist and client pick techniques that fit the person's needs, goals, and preferences and adjust as progress is made.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video sessions are useful when working on communication skills and seeing nonverbal cues, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can support brief check-ins, quick coaching, or ongoing reflection between longer sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to continue work even when in-person meetings are difficult.
