I love Monica! She has been so incredibly helpful. She doesn’t rush you and let’s you get everything out you need to. She’s given me such helpful advice and even after a session so much changed.
More about Monica
- 15 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
I am a licensed professional counselor in the State of Texas with 14 years of experience providing online and in person mental health and behavioral counseling for children, adolescents, and adults. I counsel my clients in English and Spanish as part of an integrated multidisciplinary team in a healthcare clinic. I also counseled college students in a yearlong internship at the University Counseling Center on one of the University of Texas campuses.
My career before becoming a mental health provider included working as an industrial engineer and in several business and marketing positions. I believe that my experience working in different career fields has enhanced my skills as a therapist as I am empathetic, analytical, and logical when working with my clients. I work hard to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment.
My goal is to work with my clients to improve their coping skills and to effectively manage issues such as Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, and ADHD. I also aim to help parents and caregivers build and improve parenting skills. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage, but I think it is well worth it. I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
