Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Maria Milana

Maria uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors - a practical approach often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is another key method she employs; ACT focuses on accepting difficult emotions while clarifying personal values and committing to meaningful action, which can be useful for stress, life transitions, and chronic worry.

Client-Centered Therapy is woven into her approach as well, emphasizing a warm, empathetic, and collaborative relationship where the client’s goals guide the pace and focus of treatment. Maria works with each person to determine which combination of strategies fits their needs and preferences, making the selection of approach a shared decision between therapist and client.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging can accommodate busy schedules, mobility limits, and geographic constraints. For many people, these options make it easier to attend regular sessions and integrate therapeutic work into daily life while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor care to individual goals.
