Background and approach
Ivette helps people talk through communication problems, forgiveness, and finding a clearer sense of life purpose. Her approach draws on methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Attachment-Based Therapy. In sessions she uses these approaches to build skills for handling difficult thoughts and emotions, and to strengthen how clients relate to themselves and others.
Sessions are practical and focused on what clients want to change. Ivette believes clients are the experts on their own lives. She offers gentle guidance and encouragement while helping people notice strengths they already have.
The work is collaborative and paced to each person's comfort. She practices in Minnesota and conducts sessions in English. Ivette supports people navigating everyday stressors and deeper emotional concerns by combining clear tools with steady support.
Therapeutic approaches that translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It focuses on accepting unpleasant inner experiences while moving toward meaningful goals, which can help with anxiety and stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for managing worry, mood, and everyday reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and daily life, and then suggest methods that fit those needs. Clients and the therapist decide collaboratively which techniques to try and adjust them as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a deeper exchange helps. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a work break. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework support, or when someone prefers writing over talking. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and to work on anxiety and stress amid a busy life.
