Cira Mozos Ansorena

Cira Mozos Ansorena is an AASW-accredited social worker who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and depression. She speaks English and Spanish and brings seven years of clinical experience to her work. Cira aims to make the first step manageable and clear for anyone feeling overwhelmed.

Her sessions are practical and down to earth. She listens, helps people name what is happening, and teaches everyday skills to manage intense feelings. Cira uses gentle questioning and simple exercises so people can try new ways of coping between sessions.

Cira draws on several therapy styles to match each person’s needs. She uses acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and small actions. Cognitive behavioural tools are used to notice unhelpful thoughts and change unhelpful patterns. Attachment-based ideas help when past relationships shape present reactions.

She also includes techniques from dialectical behaviour therapy for strong emotions and client-centred approaches that keep the person’s goals central. Cira runs mindfulness-based stress reduction programs to build attention and emotional balance over eight weeks. These groups focus on practical habits people can keep using after the course.

Cira aims to create a warm, respectful space where people feel heard and supported. She works with a wide range of concerns, including anger, isolation, caregiver stress, obsessions and multicultural or immigration-related challenges. If someone is unsure whether to start, she encourages a short initial step to see if the approach feels right.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and finding clearer life direction. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and trying different behaviours to change how someone feels. It often helps with anxiety, depression and obsessive patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships shape current reactions and can be useful when relationships or trust are a core concern.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and what feels most helpful. That collaborative process might try one approach first and adapt over time if something else fits better.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins on a lunch break. Some people prefer not being on camera and can still work with thought exercises or rhythm-based mindfulness practices. The focus is on making therapy practical and usable within everyday life, and the therapist will help tailor session pace and content to fit each person’s routine.
