Background and approach
That experience means she is used to working with people through intense moments and transitions. In sessions she focuses on listening, teaching, and problem-solving. Expect clear goals, simple tools, and chances to practice new ways of coping between meetings.
She blends approaches that include cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and client-centered habits to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Monna also addresses relationship and family concerns, parenting stress, addictions, trauma and abuse, and issues like anger or social anxiety. She pays attention to life stages as well, including aging and hospice-related concerns when those come up.
People who work with her often get direct, practical guidance rather than long talks without direction. She aims to make therapy useful for daily life and to help people take small steps toward clearer routines and steadier moods.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people focus on what matters most and take small actions toward those values even when emotions feel intense. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. That approach often works well for panic, social anxiety, and mood difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the person about goals and preferences and then try techniques that match those needs. They adjust methods over time based on what the person finds helpful, so therapy stays practical and person-centered.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth, and chat or messaging can be a shorter check-in or a way to share updates between sessions. These options make it easier to maintain regular sessions around busy schedules and changing needs.
