She encourages clients to recognise the courage in seeking change and offers steady support and encouragement throughout the therapeutic process. Her practice focuses on empowering people to discover more fulfilling and happier ways of living by working collaboratively to identify priorities and develop strategies that fit individual circumstances.

Monika’s work also attends to related concerns such as attachment difficulties, body image, communication problems, control issues, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, narcissistic dynamics, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, and workplace stress. She adapts her style to each client, helping them take concrete steps toward the improvements they want to see in their lives.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Monika integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside solution-focused ideas to support clients in flexible online sessions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy and respect, helping people explore their feelings and values at their own pace to build self-understanding and improve relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, low mood, panic, or stress, and works on practical skills to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on clients’ goals and strengths, encouraging small, achievable steps to create change and address problems such as workplace issues or communication difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Monika collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts the plan as progress unfolds. This collaborative process helps ensure treatment stays relevant and practical.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options allow clients to connect from different locations and choose formats that suit their schedules and comfort levels, making it easier to maintain continuity and engage in regular therapeutic work.
