About Monica
Monica Grey is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over three decades of experience. She helps people who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, depression, loss, or relationship strain. Her manner is warm and non-judgmental, and she aims to make conversations feel straightforward and useful.
Monica blends practical strategies with listening and reflection. She often uses cognitive-behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking patterns. She also draws on client-centered and emotionally-focused ideas to strengthen communication and connection.
Background and approach
Her approach begins by asking what matters most to the person in front of her. Sessions focus on small, realistic steps that can fit into daily life. Mindfulness practices are suggested when they suit a person’s needs to help manage strong emotions and racing thoughts.
Across her work she has supported people dealing with trauma, grief, addiction, parenting challenges, and identity-related concerns. Monica adapts interventions to each individual’s style and goals rather than applying a one-size-fits-all plan. She believes people already hold important knowledge about their lives and that therapy can help bring that into clearer view.
Clients who choose Monica can expect a collaborative pace. She encourages self-discovery and problem solving while offering steady guidance. Monica’s goal is to help people build coping skills, restore balance, and move toward a life that feels more manageable and meaningful.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Monica often uses cognitive-behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach works well for anxiety, depression, and stress by focusing on practical skills and short-term goals. She also uses client-centered therapy which emphasizes listening, empathy, and the person’s own goals; this helps people feel heard and guides their own solutions. Emotionally-focused ideas are used to strengthen emotional awareness and clearer communication, useful when relationship patterns or intimacy concerns cause distress.Choosing a therapeutic approach is a shared process. Monica begins by asking about your goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. From there she recommends techniques and checks in regularly so the plan can shift if something isn’t a good fit. The therapy relationship is collaborative and flexible rather than fixed from the start.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs and rhythms. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make therapy more accessible across time zones and schedules while keeping the focus on practical work and progress.
