Background and approach
That work includes roles as a clinician, therapeutic counselor, foster parent trainer, parenting skills instructor, school counselor, and school administrator. This background gives her a wide view of family and school-related stresses and how they affect individuals. Monje blends body-focused work with talk therapy.
She uses Somatic approaches alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based techniques, Client-Centered methods, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address emotional and physical reactions to stress and trauma. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.
In a typical session she helps people notice how emotions show up in the body, practice skills that reduce reactivity, and try new ways of relating to hard feelings. She uses practical exercises, clear feedback, and real-life homework when helpful. Goals are concrete and tied to everyday improvements.
Monje practices in New York and offers therapy in English. She supports clients who want to work on issues around family of origin, parenting stress, abandonment, attachment concerns, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and communication problems. Her style is steady, direct, and compassionate.
How Somatic work and ACT translate to online sessions
Somatic work helps people notice how emotions show up in the body and learn simple ways to shift physical tension. Online sessions use guided attention and grounding exercises to help clients sense and regulate bodily responses to stress.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying values and taking small steps toward them even when feelings are hard. It helps with anxiety, depression, and life transitions by teaching practical skills for living with difficult thoughts instead of getting stuck in them.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships that began early and still affect how people connect now. In therapy clients learn new ways of relating and communicating that reduce reactivity and improve closeness.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they will try techniques and adjust based on what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexible options like video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, let people work from home, and allow follow-up between meetings. Licensed professionals can use exercises, breathing practices, and behavioral experiments across these formats to support change and day-to-day coping.
