About Monica

Monica Guerrero is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 23 years of practice based in New York. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, self-esteem struggles, and the strain of life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.

Monica focuses on practical steps clients can use day to day. She helps people who feel empty, stuck, or uncertain about purpose to notice what matters and try small changes. She also addresses caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and challenges that come with cancer or long-term health issues.

Conversations cover relationship and communication problems, guilt and shame, forgiveness, and social anxiety. Monica pays attention to women's issues and seasonal mood shifts such as SAD. She works with panic symptoms and with people who want to build more self-love and clearer direction in life.

Her sessions aim to combine evidence-based therapeutic techniques with culturally aware, bilingual support. Monica offers both English and Spanish language options so clients can use the language that feels most natural. She draws on her long experience to tailor each meeting to the person's current difficulties and practical goals.

Clients begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling a first session. The practice uses a subscription payment model that can be canceled at any time, and fees vary depending on location.

How evidence-based methods are used online

Monica draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions in clear, practical terms. Cognitive-style approaches focus on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and testing new ways of thinking; these methods help with anxiety, panic symptoms, and low mood by teaching specific exercises to use between sessions. Behavioral and skills-based work concentrates on building routines and coping strategies to manage stress, seasonal mood shifts, and the daily impact of chronic illness.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review needs, goals, and preferences together and adjust methods as they go. That means trying a technique, checking how it lands, and changing course when something doesn’t fit the person’s life or priorities.

If you plan to meet remotely, confirm the exact session formats before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-in meetings when needed. Some formats also use less bandwidth or avoid video when that helps someone focus. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework so work continues between appointments.
