I love her! She is the definition of compassion

Monica listens and responds appropriately.

Monica is one of the most genuine therapists I've ever had! She is so patient, supportive, and really seems to listen and care when I discuss what's going on or ramble. I am extremely grateful to have Monica as a therapist because she made me realize that my feelings and experiences are valid, which I had not believed before.

I was reluctant to start therapy again and wasn't sure that virtual therapy was the right choice for me. Betterhelp gave me a chance to try and find the right therapist for me and to give therapy a try on my terms and within my budget. I got so lucky in finding Monica. She is the perfect fit and simply gets me and my challenges. She helps me while in my session and when I have moments where I just need to be heard. I am looking forward to doing even more work with Monica helping me along the way.

Monica is an amazingly empathetic, relatable therapist. She has helped me through some big challenges over the past few month. Her strategies have helped me find solutions for moving forward and staying positive. She has been a strong source of support and guidance. I'm so thankful I found Monica through BetterHelp.

Monica listens to me and gives me practical cognitive behavioral tips. I appreciate how Monica is accessible by messaging in-between my weekly video sessions.
