Cira Mozos Ansorena

Cira Mozos Ansorena is an AASW-accredited social worker with seven years working in mental health. She supports people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, and depression. She speaks English and Spanish and aims to make first steps feel manageable for worried parents and carers.

Cira uses straightforward conversation and practical tools rather than jargon. Sessions focus on what matters now - calming strong feelings, improving day-to-day routines, and building clearer communication. She encourages small experiments clients can try between meetings to see what helps.

Her practice blends several approaches so therapy fits each person. Techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) are used to help with unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Attachment-based ideas guide work on relationships and how early bonds affect current reactions.

Cira also draws on Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) skills for managing intense emotions. She runs Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) programs to build attention and emotional regulation over eight weeks. This mix is adapted to each person rather than applied in the same way every time.

People meet her to tackle issues linked to intellectual disability, multicultural challenges, caregiver stress, obsessive patterns, or feelings of isolation. Her aim is to create a calm, respectful space where people can try new ways of coping and take practical steps toward better days.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying values and taking small actions toward a meaningful life. ACT can be useful for anxiety, depression and struggles with motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to test and change unhelpful patterns. CBT often helps with anxiety, low mood and obsessive thinking. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current interactions and emotional responses and can support work on connection and trust.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist discusses goals, personal preferences and the issues you bring. Then she adapts techniques from ACT, CBT or attachment work so sessions match what you need. This is a collaborative process aimed at experimenting and adjusting over time.

Please confirm the available session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific online or in-person options. Online therapy can make sessions easier to fit into busy days, allow shorter check-ins, reduce travel time and let people join from different locations. Those practical benefits often help therapy become a sustainable part of everyday life.
