Monika Scott-Rogers, LPC

Monika Scott-Rogers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who creates a thoughtful, strengths-based space for people navigating pain, loss, and life transitions. She recognizes how past experiences can resurface and shape present feelings and behaviors, and she frames healing as a process of gently reassembling oneself rather than returning to a previous state. She likens this work to the art of kintsugi - repairing broken pieces in a way that highlights resilience and new beauty.

Monika focuses on expanding each person’s coping toolbox through evidence-informed practices, tailoring interventions to the whole person and the systems that affect them, such as family and peers. Her approach emphasizes collaboration and individualized care so that treatment aligns with a person’s needs, values, and relationships. She brings both professional training and a clear commitment to service, guiding willing participants toward growth, learning, and renewed well-being.

With attention to practical skills and emotional processing, Monika supports people who want to heal from trauma, manage anxiety and depression, repair relationships, and cope with life changes. She aims to help individuals build durable strategies for living that honor their experiences and foster continued recovery.

Approaches for Online Healing and Practical Support

Monika uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, empathetic environment where the client's own goals and perspectives guide progress. This approach helps people feel heard and supported while working on issues like self-esteem, family dynamics, and life purpose.

She also incorporates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is often useful for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and mood-related concerns by teaching practical coping skills and problem-solving strategies.

Mindfulness therapy is another tool she uses to help people build awareness of present-moment experience and regulate difficult emotions. Mindfulness techniques can support coping with stress, grief, and patterns of rumination.

Finding the right blend of methods is part of the therapeutic process, and Monika works collaboratively with each person to determine which approaches fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they adjust strategies as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around busy lives, access care from different locations within the state, and maintain continuity of treatment when in-person visits are not convenient. Licensed professionals can adapt these formats to deliver effective, person-focused support.
