About Monica

Monica Guerrero is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 23 years of experience. She works with people who are facing anxiety, stress, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish, and she practices from New York.

She helps clients who are coping with chronic illness or pain, cancer and caregiver stress, and the isolation that can come with difficult health situations. She also supports people dealing with panic attacks, seasonal mood shifts, and social anxiety and phobia. Conversations focus on practical ways to manage symptoms and get through hard days.

Monica uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people build skills for everyday life. She guides clients through communication problems, issues with guilt or shame, and feelings of emptiness or loss of purpose. Work in sessions often includes learning coping strategies and practicing clearer ways to express needs.

Her bilingual ability lets Spanish speakers work in their preferred language when that is helpful. Monica notes that cost varies by location and that sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. For people ready to begin, the process starts with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session.

Her approach is straightforward and practical. She focuses on concrete steps people can take between sessions. The emphasis is on steady progress, one small change at a time.

How Monica approaches therapy online

Monica works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and real-life application. One common approach is skills-based work that teaches breathing, grounding, and step-by-step coping techniques for panic and anxiety. These tools aim to reduce the intensity of symptoms and make gatherings or social situations more manageable.

Another approach is problem-focused work that helps people sort symptoms tied to life changes, caregiving, chronic illness, or grief. This involves breaking big problems into smaller tasks, practicing communication strategies, and setting short, achievable goals that can be practiced between sessions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Monica will discuss options with each person, try methods that fit personal goals, and adjust the plan as needs change. The goal is to work together to pick techniques that feel useful and doable.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online session options before booking. Many people value online sessions because they can fit therapy into workdays, avoid travel, or choose a quieter time without rearranging schedules. Online work can make it easier to maintain regular contact and practice skills in everyday settings.
