About Cira
Cira Mozos Ansorena is an Accredited Social Worker (AASW) and counsellor in Australia with seven years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, and depression. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and focus on practical steps clients can try between meetings.
Cira uses a mix of structured skills and conversational work. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and attachment ideas to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and patterns. She also uses client-centred techniques to listen and prioritise what matters most to each person.
Her practice includes support for issues such as low self-esteem, addiction, grief and loss, and obsessive behaviours. Cira also helps with multicultural concerns, immigration-related stress, caregiver strain, and communication problems. She is familiar with challenges linked to autism and intellectual disability and works to adapt interventions to the individual.
Cira runs Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) programs as a lead facilitator, using guided practice and attention exercises in an eight-week format. That work feeds into short-term therapy focused on developing emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills.
Sessions aim to identify small, concrete changes a person can test between meetings. The emphasis is on clear strategies - noticing thought patterns, trying different behaviours, and building day-to-day skills to manage mood and reactivity.
How her CBT, ACT and attachment work translates online
CBT focuses on spotting and testing thoughts and behaviours. Online sessions can use structured worksheets, short behavioural experiments and agreed homework to help someone change patterns between meetings. This approach is useful for anxiety, mood issues and obsessive thinking.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and practise actions that align with those values. In an online setting ACT typically uses values exercises and mindfulness practices to build willing action despite difficult thoughts or feelings.
Attachment-based ideas are used to look at how early relationships shape current responses and communication. Online therapy can use discussion and reflective exercises to identify patterns and try new ways of relating to others and to oneself.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which combination of methods fits their goals, needs and preferences. This is reviewed as progress is made and adjustments are made where needed.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into work or family routines, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. These practical benefits help people keep momentum and apply skills in day-to-day life.
