About Monica
Monica Van Nort uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and big life changes. She presents a calm, direct style and focuses on helping clients notice small shifts that lead to clearer thinking and better day-to-day coping. Monica is licensed as an LPCC and as an LMHC in Florida.
She draws on a decade of counseling experience to guide conversations and offer practical tools. Sessions are centered on the person in front of her and what works for them, not a one-size-fits-all plan.
Background and approach
Her work emphasizes the therapeutic relationship as the engine of progress. Monica listens, reflects, and gently challenges thoughts and habits that get in the way of productive living. She aims for moments of insight that help people connect what they feel to what they do and why it matters.
In sessions she uses straightforward strategies to ease anxiety and manage stress. She helps people develop coping skills for grief and adapt to life transitions. The focus is on small, concrete steps people can try between meetings.
Monica pairs practical coaching with empathy. She helps people recognize strengths and build routines that fit their daily life. The goal is to help clients move toward more steady mood, clearer decisions, and a stronger sense of personal agency.
How practical approaches work online
Monica uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on present problems and teach clear coping skills. One common approach is skill-building for anxiety and stress management - clients learn breathing, grounding, and behavioral strategies to reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. Another approach is grief and life-change work that helps people process loss, reorganize routine, and develop ways to move forward while honoring what they’ve lost.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen to your concerns, goals, and preferences and then suggest techniques to try. Sessions are collaborative - you and the therapist review what helps and adjust the plan together over time.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits the day. Live chat and messaging let people send notes between sessions and get brief support without scheduling a call. These options offer flexibility so therapy can fit around work, family, and other responsibilities.
