Monique McGee

Monique McGee is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Georgia with 12 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. Monique also addresses communication problems, workplace issues, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, women's issues, self-love, and questions about life purpose.

She draws on years of clinical work across different settings to offer practical tools that fit busy lives. Monique uses clear, step-by-step strategies to reduce stress and manage anxious thinking. She introduces simple coping skills clients can try between sessions and helps people notice what is and isn’t working for them.

Monique favors approaches that center the client's perspective and goals. She combines client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral techniques to spot thought patterns and shift unhelpful behaviors. Mindfulness practices are used to slow racing thoughts, and solution-focused methods help set small, achievable steps when someone feels stuck.

Her own experience as a working mother informs how she talks about burnout and daily demands. Monique often helps people reorganize priorities, set boundaries at work, and rebuild a sense of self after loss or major change. She also brings experience supporting people with personality disorder diagnoses through practical, consistent interventions.

People who come to Monique can expect direct, respectful conversation about what’s bothering them and concrete options to try. To begin, she asks people to describe their current struggles and what a reasonable next step would look like for them.

How Monique uses practical approaches in online sessions

Client-centered therapy begins with simple, focused listening. The therapist asks about what matters to the client, prioritizes immediate concerns, and builds goals from the client's own priorities. This approach helps when someone is unsure what to change next or needs a place to sort through mixed feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Monique uses CBT to help identify unhelpful thinking patterns and to practice different ways of responding. This method is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress related to work or life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Monique discusses options with each person and makes decisions together based on goals, needs, and preferences. She may focus on short-term steps first, then add mindfulness or CBT practices as needed.

Confirm the specific online session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Many people choose online sessions for practical reasons - fitting therapy into a workday, reducing travel time, or having a shorter check-in when time is limited. Talk with Monique about what will fit your routine and which session rhythm might work best for your goals.
