How Monet uses practical approaches in online therapy
Monet commonly draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the person's lead so goals feel meaningful. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors to find workable changes for anxiety and stress.She treats approach selection as a shared decision. During early sessions she will talk with each person about their goals, try different techniques, and adjust based on what fits. That collaborative process helps shape whether to focus more on emotion work, skills practice, or mindfulness exercises.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions are useful for deeper conversations and skills practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging let people send updates or get brief support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules while keeping work focused on practical progress.
