More about Monica

  • 7 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

Everyone goes through difficult times in life. But sometimes life can feel a real struggle where people may feel stuck, confused and unable to cope.

The aim of counselling is to give you an opportunity to explore difficult feelings, help you make sense and better manage them. I can help you by listening to you and exploring how you feel. Together we can work through your feelings, get a deeper understanding of who you are and find out what you need to live a more fulfilling and growthful life.

I offer a safe, professional, non-judgmental and confidential environment. I am passionate about well-being and mental health and I believe that everyone deserves to receive the best help and support to meet their needs.

I have had the opportunity to work with many clients over the past few years and have witnessed their ability to develop and grow when they are offered the appropriate help and care.

I am comfortable working with difference and I am aware of the existence of cultural factors that influence individuals, their situation and the differences between us. I feel able to listen to, respect, understand and I am open to learn.

Common issues I have experience working with: anxiety, depression, isolation, anger, loss, bereavement, relationships, stress, low self-esteem, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, abuse. This is not intended to be a conclusive list. Please let me know the issue you would like to address to see if I can help!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I've had a few different therapists in the past but Monica has been the best yet! She listened compassionately but also helped me challenge my thinking patterns and beliefs. Would highly recommend to anyone who needs help.
