Monica frequently helps people who struggle with anxiety, stress, depression, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, ADHD, and panic attacks. She also supports work on attachment issues, communication problems, guilt and shame, and life-purpose questions. Her practice is person-focused and aims to meet each client where they are.
In session, Monica emphasizes collaboration. She listens first, then suggests tools that fit a person’s needs and daily life. That can include coping strategies, behavior-focused exercises, and ways to reframe upsetting thoughts. The pace is set by the client so progress feels steady and attainable.
Her approach may appeal to people who want a therapist who is both spiritually open and grounded in practical techniques. Monica aims to help clients move from feeling overwhelmed to finding clearer direction and greater emotional balance.
How her approaches guide online therapy
Monica uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where people set the pace and topics for sessions. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting, and helping clients find their own answers, which can be helpful for anxiety and life-purpose questions.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which addresses patterns of thinking and behavior that keep stress and panic symptoms going. CBT offers practical tools and short exercises to try between sessions, useful for managing panic attacks and day-to-day anxiety.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Monica will discuss which methods fit a person’s goals and preferences, and she adjusts methods over time based on what helps most. The decision about approach is collaborative and guided by each client’s needs.
