How CBT and online sessions work together
Monica uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a core approach. CBT looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps people test and change unhelpful thinking patterns. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and stress management.In session, CBT often includes short exercises, thought records, and behavioral experiments to try between meetings. Those practical tasks make progress easier to track and help people build skills for everyday situations. Monica collaborates with clients to pick strategies that feel doable and relevant to their goals.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss your needs and preferences and adapt methods over time. Work together to set goals, try techniques, and adjust what isn’t working until a good fit is found.
Online therapy offers flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets you see facial cues and practice skills in real time. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text messaging make short check-ins and homework follow-ups easy to fit into a busy day. These formats increase accessibility and make regular progress more manageable.
