About Ivette
Ivette Orozco-Mayares is a licensed independent clinical social worker (LICSW) practicing in Minnesota. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression while also addressing career concerns and family-related struggles. Ivette uses straightforward conversation and practical steps to help people move forward.
She listens for each person's strengths and builds on what already works in their life. She emphasizes small, achievable changes and encourages clients to try different ways of handling problems between sessions.
How Ivette works
Her approach draws on methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to reframe thoughts and identify helpful actions. She also uses Attachment-Based and Emotionally-Focused approaches to look at how relationships and emotional patterns affect wellbeing. These methods are applied in simple, relatable ways rather than technical language.
Ivette aims to create a calm, supportive space where clients can name what matters to them and take concrete steps toward it. She helps people sort through communication problems, guilt, shame, and feelings of isolation. Work on forgiveness, self-love, life purpose, and workplace issues are also common topics.
For people who feel stuck or overwhelmed, she offers steady guidance and practical tools. Her style is collaborative: she helps clients set goals, try new skills, and notice progress. Ivette brings three years of professional experience to this work and conducts sessions in English in Minnesota.

Online support options
Online approaches that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what really matters to them and take action toward those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings show up. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms. Emotionally-Focused elements help highlight how emotions shape relationships and daily choices, making it easier to shift interaction patterns that cause distress.Choosing the right approach is part of treatment. Ivette explores options with each person and tailors techniques to their goals, needs, and preferences. She works collaboratively to try approaches and adjust the plan based on what feels most helpful for the client.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues, phone works when bandwidth or multitasking is a concern, live chat allows shorter check-ins, and messaging supports brief updates or ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into workdays, family routines, or other commitments while still accessing licensed professional support.
