Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Marina integrates practical, evidence-informed approaches to help clients address the issues they bring to therapy. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present - it is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, sleep problems, and some addictive behaviors. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes empathy and collaboration, offering a nonjudgmental space where clients can explore emotions and build self-understanding, often supporting growth in self-esteem, relationships, and coping skills.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Marina works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit best with their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so treatment stays aligned with what is most helpful for the individual.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage with a licensed professional - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - making it easier to schedule care around work, family, and other commitments. These options can increase accessibility and allow therapy to continue during life changes or when in-person visits are not convenient, while preserving the collaborative relationship between therapist and client.
