About Monica
LCPC, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with three years of experience based in California. Monica Garnett helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship and anger issues, and works with concerns like self-esteem, compassion fatigue, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, depression, and coping with life changes.
Monica uses a mix of client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, motivational interviewing and solution-focused methods. She focuses on practical steps clients can use between sessions. Conversations look at current patterns, goals, and small skills to try at home.
Her experience totals three years in the roles reflected by her credentials LCPC and LPC. The biography indicates past work across a range of needs and populations, and she draws on several approaches rather than a single method.
In sessions she aims for a collaborative, engaging style. Clients discuss what’s not working and set short-term, achievable goals. She helps people build emotional regulation skills, coping strategies and clearer communication.
Monica also lists coaching among her services, and includes work related to addictions and grief alongside relationship and intimacy concerns. People interested in therapy should confirm current session options when they book, since formats in the original biography were not preserved for this profile.

How Monica’s approaches guide online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. The therapist follows the client’s lead and helps clarify goals and priorities, useful for relationship concerns and self-esteem work.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks down thoughts and behaviors into manageable parts. It teaches concrete strategies for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes through practice between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers skills for emotional regulation and managing strong reactions. It can be helpful for anger, distress tolerance and improving interpersonal effectiveness.
Monica will work collaboratively to find the best fit among these methods. She and the client decide together what techniques to try based on current needs, goals and preferences. That process can include experimenting with brief skills, tracking progress, and adjusting plans over time.
Confirm the specific session formats available before booking, as this profile does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so focus stays on the work discussed in session.
