How Monica works
Her work includes attention to attachment, codependency, communication problems, and life transitions. Her approach blends several methods to match each person’s needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and taking meaningful action even when feelings are hard. Mindfulness-based techniques are used to increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity. Monica also uses solution-focused and trauma-informed strategies to address immediate problems and past injuries that continue to affect daily life.
Sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented, with practical tools to practice between meetings. She frames therapy as a process of learning new skills and trying them out in real life. Clients meet with Monica through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.
She brings nine years of clinical experience and works in English with people located in Tennessee.
