Monje uses straightforward conversation and practical skills in sessions. She combines person-centered listening with cognitive behavioral techniques. Mindfulness and elements of dialectical behavior approaches are used to help manage intense emotions and impulsivity.
Her background includes a Master’s degree in Counseling and Development from Long Island University and a School Counseling certification.

In sessions she aims to help people reduce overwhelm and build clearer routines and communication. Work often focuses on coping strategies, setting boundaries, and repairing trust in relationships. For someone navigating stepfamily or blended household challenges she can help address loyalty conflicts, merging routines, and co-parenting strains.

Online approaches and how they fit
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small committed actions even when feelings are difficult. It can help with anxiety, depression, and navigating hard choices in blended households. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and communication. It can be useful when loyalty conflicts or trust issues show up in stepfamily situations.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying strategies, tracking what helps, and adjusting the plan together.
Confirm the current session options before booking to know which formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, or allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also let people practice new communication skills between meetings and bring real-life situations into conversation without rearranging the day.
