About Monje
Monje Moore is a New York State Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 30 years of experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, and life transitions. She also addresses trauma and abuse, self-esteem, ADHD, and related concerns listed in her practice.
Monje keeps language direct and practical in sessions. She uses techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to teach skills for managing strong feelings and interrupting unhelpful thinking. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and attachment-based ideas to help people notice what matters and build steadier connections with others.
Her background includes a Master’s degree in Counseling and Development from Long Island University and a School Counseling certification. Over her career she has worked as a clinician, therapeutic counselor, foster parent trainer, parenting skills instructor, school counselor, and school administrator. Those roles inform how she supports practical parenting and family concerns.
Sessions focus on clear goals and concrete tools as well as reflection on patterns from the past. Monje aims to combine talking through problems with exercises to change reactions and behaviors. This can include learning emotion regulation skills, practicing communication techniques, or developing routines for stress management.
She works with individual adults on issues such as intimacy-related problems, anger, career concerns, compassion fatigue, and coping with life changes. People who prefer straightforward language and step-by-step skills may find her approach helpful.
How her approaches translate to online work
Monje uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; CBT often includes homework and short exercises that can be practiced between sessions. She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and choosing actions that align with personal values rather than trying to eliminate every uncomfortable feeling.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Monje will discuss goals and preferences with the client and adapt methods over time. That collaborative process helps decide whether to emphasize skill training, values-based work, or attachment-focused exploration in sessions.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats. Please confirm which formats are offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists can assign brief practices to try between sessions and use video or phone depending on technical needs and comfort. These practical advantages help integrate therapy into everyday life without promising particular outcomes.
