Background and approach

Her style is warm and nonjudgmental. She listens first, then helps people find clearer next steps. Common topics include managing overwhelming feelings, changing unhelpful self-talk, and coping with the daily pressures of parenting.

Across seven years of practice she has worked with a range of individual concerns and life transitions. She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques while tailoring the work to each person’s needs and pace. Progress often comes from small, consistent changes and clearer thinking about priorities.

Sessions are offered in English and are available to people living in Georgia. Markellila describes therapy as a collaborative process and supports people who want to improve mood, reduce anxiety, strengthen self-worth, or try a coaching-style approach to personal goals.

Evidence-based techniques for online counseling

Markellila uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical work. One common approach she uses helps people learn skills to manage anxiety and stress through step-by-step coping strategies and breathing or grounding practices. This approach is useful for reducing immediate overwhelm and creating steadier daily routines.

She also blends counseling with coaching methods to strengthen self-esteem and clarify goals. That work involves setting small, achievable objectives, tracking progress, and adjusting plans as needed to build confidence and momentum. These methods suit people who want both emotional support and hands-on skill building.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the early work. The therapist and client collaborate to choose methods that fit the person’s goals, needs, and comfort level. Adjustments are made over time so the plan stays useful and realistic.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for scheduling and access. Video calls let people keep visual contact and mimic in-person conversations. Phone sessions or live chat can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is a concern. Text-based messaging supports brief check-ins, ongoing coaching prompts, or quick troubleshooting between sessions. These options make it easier to fit work on mood and stress management into a busy life.
