How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Monica often uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely to a person’s experience and reflecting it back to help them clarify feelings and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, panic, and unhelpful patterns.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Monica will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying concrete strategies when someone needs coping tools and shifting to deeper narrative or psychodynamic questions when understanding patterns matters more.
