About Cira
Cira Mozos Ansorena is an AASW-accredited social worker who helps people manage anxiety and stress. She focuses on practical steps that reduce overwhelm and make daily life feel more doable. Cira speaks English and Spanish and draws on seven years working in mental health.
She supports people who have experienced trauma and abuse and those struggling with anger or depression. She also helps with worries linked to attachment, obsessive thoughts, isolation, and life transitions.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to build skills people can use between meetings. Cira uses a mix of approaches so the work fits the person. She combines Cognitive Behavioural Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and elements of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy where they help.
The result is a flexible plan that focuses on what matters most to each person. Her style is warm and straightforward. She encourages small, steady steps and practises mindful awareness skills drawn from mindfulness-based stress reduction.
Clients are invited to notice patterns, try new strategies in everyday life, and review what helps. People often come wanting tools for anxiety, clearer communication, or support after trauma. Cira offers video, phone, chat and messaging sessions so people can choose what works for them.
Getting started involves a short questionnaire and scheduling the first appointment.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, so they can make choices that reflect their values. It is useful for anxiety, worry and situations where avoidance has become a problem.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on practical strategies to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour. It gives clear tools for anxiety, mood difficulties and obsessive patterns, and often includes homework to practise between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss what matters to the person and try methods that fit their goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and plans are adjusted as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is good for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for short check-ins, and messaging lets people write through feelings between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to access ongoing support from a suitably qualified therapist regardless of location.
