Background and approach

She uses methods that help people notice patterns, shift unhelpful thoughts, and practice new ways of relating. Monje emphasizes collaboration and practical steps over long lectures. Monje trained at Long Island University and holds a Master’s degree in Counseling and Development.

Over her career she has worked as a clinician, therapeutic counselor, foster parent trainer, parenting skills instructor, school counselor, and school administrator. That variety shapes how she approaches family challenges and parenting questions. She draws on several evidence-informed approaches to match each person’s needs.

Therapy can include mindfulness, cognitive strategies, and skills for managing intense emotions. The goal is clearer communication, better coping, and stronger day-to-day functioning. Sessions are offered in English from New York.

The practice does not accept international clients. Monje’s profile is practical and focused on helping people move through difficult moments toward clearer choices.

Approaches for online sessions and what to expect

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small steps toward those values. It teaches simple ways to notice painful thoughts and feelings without being ruled by them, which is useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships. It looks at how early connections shape current reactions and helps build safer, more trusting ways to relate to partners and family members.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Monje collaborates with clients to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts strategies over time based on what is helpful in sessions.

Online therapy here is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. These options let people fit sessions around parenting, work, and other responsibilities. The range of formats also makes it easier to continue therapy during life transitions or when in-person visits are difficult.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
