About Monica
People who meet with her can expect a practical, down-to-earth process. Monica encourages clients to name what matters most, try small changes, and notice what helps. She blends thinking-focused strategies with attention to emotions and life meaning so clients can solve problems that matter day to day.
Her approach draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep the person central in each session. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and Mindfulness techniques to strengthen present-moment coping. Emotionally-Focused Therapy and elements of existential work inform how she addresses close relationships and questions about purpose.
Monica tailors interventions to each person's style and needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. She has worked with issues such as addictions, parenting stress, intimacy concerns, caregiver strain, and mood disorders. She also supports people facing life changes, isolation, and challenges tied to identity.

How Monica Uses Therapy Approaches Online
Monica often blends Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors to find small, practical changes that reduce distress and improve daily functioning.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Monica will talk with each person about their goals and try different ways of working until a good fit emerges. She adapts methods to match a client's needs, preferences, and pace rather than insisting on one fixed method.
