About Monica

Monica Malhotra is a counsellor (BACP) practising in the United Kingdom with eight years of experience. She supports people who are facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low motivation, self-esteem issues, substance misuse, bereavement and depression.

Monica uses a person-centred style. She focuses on listening without judgement and helping people talk through what matters to them. Sessions are aimed at noticing strengths and past coping, then building practical ways to manage day-to-day challenges.

In meetings she works collaboratively to help people shift perspectives. That can mean looking at patterns in relationships, exploring feelings around loss, or breaking bigger problems into manageable steps. The emphasis is on strategies that can be used between sessions as well as during them.

Monica also helps with deeper themes such as abandonment, attachment concerns, body image, control issues, divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt and shame. She discusses life purpose and ways to develop self-love where that is relevant to the person sitting in front of her.

Her approach centres on helping people draw on their own resources. Sessions are adapted to the individual's needs and goals. The first appointment is used to map priorities and agree how to work together.

How Monica uses evidence-based approaches online

Monica practises evidence-based therapeutic techniques with a person-centred focus. Person-centred work emphasises listening and reflection so people can make sense of their feelings and find their own solutions; it helps with low mood, relationship concerns and loss. Brief, goal-focused strategies break larger problems into small, achievable steps and can help with stress, anxiety and building everyday coping skills.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Monica will discuss different methods and agree a plan based on the person's needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape whether sessions focus more on exploring feelings, practising new behaviours, or building problem-solving routines.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking as the biography does not specify them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by avoiding travel and allowing sessions around errands, work or family commitments. It can also suit shorter check-ins when less time is available and audio-only calls when bandwidth is limited. Registered or accredited professionals often offer these practical options to help people keep therapy consistent with daily life.
