Background and approach
She draws on techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to help change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness tools are used to build calm and present-moment focus when anxiety feels intense. She also uses client-centered principles, which means she follows each person’s lead and priorities.
Solution-focused strategies help set short-term goals and track progress between sessions. These methods are used together to address stress, depression, relationship strains, addictions, and life transitions. Monica has worked with issues such as panic attacks, postpartum depression, seasonal affective disorder, social anxiety and phobia, and midlife concerns.
She helps people who are dealing with communication problems, mood disorders, and challenges related to aging. Based in Ohio, she works in English and adapts the pace and tools to what feels most useful for each person. Monica emphasizes compassion, sensitivity, and respect as the starting point for change.
Practical approaches for online anxiety care
Monica often uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that maintain anxiety. CBT helps people learn clear skills for managing panic, worry, and low mood. She also uses mindfulness therapy to teach attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and improve stress tolerance.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to choose techniques that match their goals and daily life. Changes are made together based on what feels useful and realistic, with short-term goals set to track progress over time.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief updates and between-session coaching more convenient during busy days. These formats help people fit care into work, caregiving, or other routines while practicing skills between sessions.
