How Monica Combines Approaches for Online Care
Monica often uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and practicing concrete strategies to shift reactions and behaviors. This approach can be helpful for anxiety, panic, mood symptoms, and managing stress in daily life.
She also draws on client-centered therapy, prioritizing empathy, active listening, and collaboration so clients feel heard and supported while they explore their values and goals. This work supports growth when people are facing life transitions, parenting challenges, or the aftermath of trauma.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Monica collaborates with each client to determine what combination of methods fits best. She tailors interventions based on the client's goals, preferences, and the issues they bring, adjusting as progress is made.
Online therapy with Monica is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing flexibility for busy schedules and varied comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent care from Texas or internationally and to choose formats that support ongoing engagement and practical skill building.
