About Monica
Monica Jones is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with 10 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, depression, and help with life changes.
She focuses on practical steps people can try between sessions. Monica listens to a person’s experience and helps identify thoughts and habits that keep problems going. She uses clear tools to reduce worry and create small changes that add up over time.
Monica draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to address present-day difficulties. She also uses attachment-based ideas and client-centered techniques to look at relationship patterns and how they affect feelings and choices.
Sessions often center on setting specific goals, noticing unhelpful thinking, and testing new behaviors. Monica helps people plan doable changes for everyday life, such as stress management, coping with grief, or handling anger more effectively.
Her background includes work with a wide range of concerns beyond mood and anxiety, including trauma and abuse, parenting stress, body image and eating-related issues, career questions, and relationship patterns tied to attachment or abandonment. Monica speaks English and practices in Louisiana as an LPC.
How cognitive and acceptance-based methods work online
Monica commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions so someone can try different responses and track what helps.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying values and taking committed steps even when difficult feelings are present. Attachment-based ideas are used when relationship patterns and early bonds relate to current struggles.
Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. Monica will review a person’s situation, goals, and preferences and collaboratively choose techniques to try. That choice can shift as progress is made or new priorities appear.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a weekday, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and remove travel time. Many people find it helpful to practice exercises between sessions, and online meetings can make that planning more convenient.
