About Monica

Monica Jha is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Tennessee with nine years of experience. She works with adults who are facing anxiety, stress, relationship concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, depression, and life transitions. Monica also addresses issues such as self-esteem, anger, addiction, ADHD, and challenges tied to family and identity.

Monica favors clear, practical strategies alongside reflective work. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness-based tools when those fit a person's goals.

Sessions focus on spotting patterns that keep stress and conflict active. People learn simple exercises to change daily habits, manage emotional overwhelm, and improve communication. Monica includes trauma-focused methods when past events are contributing to current struggles.

Her style is task-oriented and curious. Monica offers structured skills practice and brief check-ins on progress. She helps clients set realistic steps for relationships, parenting strain, career decisions, and midlife concerns.

Monica stresses collaboration about goals and techniques. She helps people test what works and adjusts plans as needed. To begin, clients use the online intake process to match and schedule a first session.

How Monica uses evidence-based approaches online

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and testing practical alternatives. It is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and stress-related patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and commit to small actions even when difficult emotions are present. It is often chosen for life transitions, motivation issues, and persistent worry.

Mindfulness Therapy trains attention to present-moment experience with short practices and breath-based exercises. It can reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation during stressful periods and relationship strain.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Monica will collaborate with each person to choose or combine methods based on goals, comfort, and progress. She reviews what is helping and adjusts strategies if needed, so the plan stays practical and focused on everyday problems.

Session formats are not listed here in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into work or family schedules, and short audio check-ins can work when time or bandwidth is limited. Discuss options during the intake so sessions match scheduling needs and communication preferences.
