Monica Jha, LPC

Monica Jha is a licensed therapist and emotional clarity coach who provides online therapy across Tennessee. With nine years of clinical experience, she supports adults facing anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, trauma, grief, and the many shifts that come with life transitions. Monica blends practical skills with compassionate exploration so people can move from feeling stuck to finding clearer direction and greater emotional balance.

Her work is holistic, integrative, and trauma-informed, which means she attends to thoughts, emotions, and bodily experience rather than focusing only on symptoms. Monica draws from evidence-based approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness practices, adapting tools to fit each person’s needs and comfort level. As an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor - she brings professional training and clinical experience to help clients navigate complex issues like addiction, family dynamics, identity concerns, and career or parenting challenges.

Monica emphasizes collaboration and curiosity, inviting clients to explore underlying patterns and build skills that support lasting change. Together, she and each client identify practical steps and inner resources that align with what matters most to the client. If a client is ready to begin, Monica currently has morning sessions available and offers multiple remote ways to connect across Tennessee.

Therapeutic approaches and online care with Monica

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise - it is useful for anxiety, life transitions, and patterns that keep someone stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms and build coping skills, often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and self-compassion techniques to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation, which can support responses to trauma, overwhelm, and chronic stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Monica collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time as progress and new priorities emerge. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy feels relevant and manageable.

Online therapy with Monica offers practical flexibility - sessions can happen via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. Remote work makes it easier to maintain continuity during life changes, coordinate between responsibilities, and access consistent support from licensed professionals without travel constraints.
