How Mika uses therapy approaches online
Mika uses client-centred work to focus on what the individual brings to a session. This approach involves open questions and reflective listening so the person sets priorities and explores what matters most. It can help with stress, low mood and relationship concerns.She also uses mindfulness techniques to help reduce immediate stress and increase awareness of bodily and mental states. Mindfulness can be useful for anxiety, sleeplessness and coping with strong emotions.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. Mika describes her practice as pluralistic, so she will work with the person to agree which approaches to try based on their needs and preferences. That collaboration continues over the first few sessions to check what is helpful and what to adjust.
