More about Monica
- 9 years' experience

- LPC
I am a bilingual and bicultural therapist. My interest in serving my clients include helping with changes and transitions in life. I meet my clients where they are and help them to achieve a better version of themselves. As an older and more experienced therapist in the field I think it helps me have a more accurate perspective in how to help my clients.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
