02 · In Monica's own words

What Monica says about the work

Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.

As a clinical licensed therapist in New York, New Jersey, and California, I bring over two decades of compassionate clinical experience supporting individuals through life's complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, grief, and self-esteem issues with culturally sensitive and personalized care.

I specialize in addressing diverse concerns including communication difficulties, and life transitions. My approach honors each person's unique journey, focusing on building self-love, understanding personal purpose, and developing meaningful coping strategies.

Drawing from extensive professional training, I offer bilingual therapy services in both English and Spanish. My commitment is to create a supportive, affirming space where individuals can explore their emotions, heal from past experiences, and cultivate inner strength. I believe in empowering clients to discover their inherent resilience and potential for growth.

03 · What happens next

From this page to a first session

Monica practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Monica's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.

  1. A questionnaire, not a booking form

    BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Monica at this point.

  2. Naming Monica specifically

    BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Monica is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Monica.

  3. If the caseload is full

    You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.

  4. The first conversation

    A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.

  5. If the fit is wrong

    Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.

04 · Before you commit

3 questions worth asking Monica

Built from what Monica actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Monica's - Monica has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.

  • “With 23 years in, what has changed most in how you work?”

    Long experience is only an advantage if it has been examined. This tends to surface whether it has.

  • “How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”

    On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.

  • “You offer sessions in English and Spanish. Does the work change depending on which we use?”

    People often reach different material in a first language than in a second. Worth naming before you choose.

06 · Provenance

Where every line on this page came from

Monica's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 9 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.

The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.

Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Monica. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
