How evidence-based approaches work online
Many of the methods Maja uses are evidence-based techniques that help people understand feelings and try different ways of coping. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing more helpful ones to reduce anxiety and low mood. This helps with stress, worry and depression by giving clear steps to practice.Another common technique concentrates on building emotional awareness and safer ways to connect with others. It can help with attachment issues, intimacy concerns and difficulties rooted in family of origin. The aim is to notice patterns and try small changes in day-to-day interactions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Maja will discuss options with each person and decide together what feels most useful. She adjusts methods to fit goals, pace and preferences so the process feels practical and manageable.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful for a full conversation and visual connection, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or messaging suits shorter check-ins or when typing feels more comfortable. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the focus on progress.
