Background and approach
Sessions look at how past wounds affect current relationships and emotions. Her work often centers on connection and attachment. She guides people through processing abandonment, attachment issues, and relationship conflicts while helping them strengthen self-worth.
Monica also addresses concerns such as body image, chronic illness or pain, caregiver stress, and blended family issues. Monica combines approaches like Systemic therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to match the person in front of her. She keeps the room focused on clear goals and small experiments that can make life easier between sessions.
Clients can expect a collaborative tone where choices and values steer the work. Monica supports building practical routines, improving communication, and reducing symptoms of anxiety and depression. Her aim is steady, manageable change rather than quick fixes.

How Monica’s Approaches Work Online
Monica uses Systemic therapy to look at patterns between people and how those patterns affect emotions and behavior. This approach helps identify how family and relationship dynamics keep problems going and points to small changes that shift interactions.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, which helps people notice difficult thoughts and still move toward what matters to them. ACT is useful for anxiety, depression, and clearing the way to more meaningful daily choices. Attachment-Based Therapy is another lens she uses to understand how early relationships shape trust, self-worth, and current close relationships, which can be helpful when working through trauma or abandonment wounds.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Monica will discuss your goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together you will try methods that fit your needs and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let you work face to face, phone sessions require less bandwidth, live chat can be a brief check-in, and text-based messaging supports ongoing connection between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between sessions.
