Evidence-based approaches and online care
Monica uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional regulation. One common approach helps people learn concrete coping skills for anxiety and stress, such as breath work, grounding exercises, and short behavioral changes that reduce overwhelm. These tools are useful when worry or panic interferes with daily life.Another approach targets patterns in relationships and self-talk. It helps people notice codependent behaviors, set boundaries, and challenge harsh self-judgments that fuel shame or low self-esteem. This kind of work often includes role plays and real-life experiments to practice new responses.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let the therapist and client connect face to face for longer sessions. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief updates, written reflections, or ongoing support between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and stay consistent with their work toward change.
