Monica Mitry

Monica Mitry is an ACA counsellor and AASW social worker with ten years' experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, self-esteem and coping with life changes. Monica also supports people asking questions about life purpose and facing workplace or parenting pressures.

Her practice combines practical conversation skills and up-to-date clinical knowledge. She uses a mix of approaches to suit what a person needs in the moment, drawing on evidence-based techniques and interpersonal micro skills. Sessions focus on clear strategies and small changes people can try between appointments.

Monica describes her work as socially inclusive and trauma-informed. She pays attention to how past hurts affect current choices and communication. That attention feeds into plans that aim to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.

Her background includes counselling, clinical supervision and case management across individual and business settings. Monica has worked with a wide range of presentations, including complex and co-morbid issues, and has experience supporting people across the lifespan.

Practical matters such as pregnancy and childbirth concerns, grief and maternal issues are within her stated specialties. People who are unsure what comes next in work or life often begin by clarifying small, realistic goals. Monica helps clients talk through obstacles and test new ways of coping.

To start, she asks prospective clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Fees vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Monica reports using a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Cognitive behavioural approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing different behaviours to reduce anxiety or change stuck patterns. This method is useful for stress, workplace issues and difficulties with mood. Acceptance and commitment concepts encourage noticing difficult thoughts and deciding what matters most, which can help when life purpose or values feel unclear.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Monica will talk with clients about their needs, goals and preferences and agree on strategies together. That collaborative planning means the approach can change as progress is made or new challenges arise.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into busy weeks, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. They also let people choose quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera if that feels better. Therapists and appropriately qualified professionals use these practical benefits to help sessions fit around everyday life.
