Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Monica draws on client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to the person's priorities, helping them name what matters and decide next steps. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers practical techniques for managing anxiety, panic, or mood problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Monica will collaborate with each person to test methods, adjust what isn't helping, and agree on goals and tasks together. She balances understanding past influences with short-term strategies for coping in the present.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around study or work, reduce commute time, and allow for shorter or more frequent check-ins when needed. Therapists can also adapt exercises and tools to follow-up between meetings, which many people find useful when juggling early-adulthood demands.
