Overview

About me

You are here! You, probably, already know how thoughts and worries sometimes lead to internal struggles that can become exhausting and affect your decisions, relationships, and health. This happened to me too. Several years ago I decided to see a therapist. It helped me clear my mind and get my life in order. This experience inspired me. At the age of 40, I decided to study psychology, and today I hold a bachelor's degree, two long-term professional training certificates and I’m completing my masters in psychology. I continue to grow as a therapist through both individual study and professional training programs. I can't promise we’ll solve all your problems. My role will be to help you understand your situation as well as possible so that you can, hopefully, find optimal solutions. We will explore questions like: What is too much in your life? Or what is missing? Is there anything you would you like to be different in your life? Different, in what way? What feelings or circumstances make you feel stuck? I guide my practice based on RFT (Relational Frame Theory) principles. In short, our mind creates (through language) relations between different experiences. These RELATIONS combine into NETWORKS and help us learn about life and deal with its challenges, but they can also cause psychological distress. In our sessions, we will try to understand this "cobweb" constructed by the mind and clarify which part of it serves your valuable purposes, and which part sabotages you. If you haven't heard of RFT before and want to get an idea, you can watch this video: https://youtu.be/XvnEn1Y-gcQ I enthusiastically welcome people from Disability, LGBTQIA+, Ethical Non-Monogamy and Kink communities. The first session with me is free. If my fee is a barrier for you, but you really want to work with me, please let me know and we’ll work out a fair amount together based on your income. I work online or in the office (Vladimirescu, Arad county).

I am incredibly grateful for the guidance and support I received from Monica. She has been instrumental in helping me gain a profound understanding of how my childhood trauma influences my daily adult life and decision-making. Through our sessions, I've become acutely aware of my own weaknesses and, more importantly, she has empowered me with the tools to be vigilant against them taking control of my life. Moreover, she has guided me in exploring my inner self and emotions at a much deeper level, fostering personal growth and self-awareness. The safe and non-judgmental space she created during our sessions allowed me to open up and share my innermost thoughts and experiences without reservation.

Monica is dedicated, and she has a great depth of knowledge in the field. She individualizes her approach and recommendations to what you need. She is insightful and wise, knowing what will help.  I appreciate her punctuality and focus during the sessions. She has all of her attention of helping you, and proactively prevents any distractions.  Monica is an excellent listener, and her suggestions have greatly improved how I am feeling. She is good at helping you come up with strategies that feel doable to implement. She is kind and caring, and she has helped me more than any other therapist. Since working with her, I feel more in balance, and more capable at handing difficult situations. She has a way of letting you feel empowered and strong. I highly recommend Monica to everyone.

O recomand cu mult drag pe Monica. Este o specialista în adevăratul sens al cuvântului cu o abordare terapeutica ce se bazează pe deschidere,simț al umorului,curiozitate și grija pentru sănătatea mentală și emoțională. M-a ajutat mult să știu identific ceea ce e bun,pozitiv și benefic pentru mine și cum îmi pot descoperii și utiliza propriile resurse in diferite blocaje și situații. A avut multa înțelegere permițându-mi sa progresez in ritmul meu,ceea ce m-a ajutat mult si cred ca este ceea ce fiecare caută in ședințe de terapie. Recomand cu toată încrederea, timpul petrecut cu ea este un timp de calitate si constructiv.

I’m in the USA. Even with a country and language barrier, Monica has become a friend. My issue is circumstances make it very difficult for me to make new friends and I need new friends, eventually a new partner. Monica listened to me work through my obstacles to making new friends, now we talk more about verbal engagements with friends. While I haven’t made any new friends yet (beyond her) I believe it’s at least possible now. It didn’t seem possible when I started. Friends are really important.

Monica este primul meu terapeut. Și alegerea unui terapeut a fost una dintre cele mai bune decizii. Am simțit cum după fiecare ședință mă descoper din ce în ce mai mult. Fiecare întâlnire a dat roade în bine. Nu am stagnat niciodată. M-a ajutat să-mi dau seama ce vreau, ce mi se potrivește, ce îmi este util și ce nu este bine pentru mine. Cel mai mult mi-a plăcut că m-a ajutat să aflu singură răspunsul la toate. Nu mi-a spus niciodată ce este bine și ce e rău, ci m-a lăsat pe mine să descopăr. Este uimitor cum reușește să scoată lucrurile din adâncul nostru. Și atunci îți dai seama: "Da, are dreptate!" Dar de ce nu aș putea să descopăr unele lucruri pe cont propriu? Pentru că există oameni înzestrați cu acest dar de a săpa adânc și de a scoate la suprafață comori de adevăruri pe care nu le putem descoperi singuri. Totul este clar după ce discut o problemă cu ea. Și da, Monica este o profesionistă. La cel mai înalt grad de superioritate!

Mi-a fost frică să încep terapia deoarece nu știam dacă o să fiu ascultată, înțeleasă sau, și mai rău, judecată. În Monica am găsit un sprijin de care nu știam că am nevoie și am început să văd mici rezultate din primele ședințe. Cred că sunt cel mai recunoscătoare pentru modul în care m-a ajutat să văd cât de valide sunt sentimentele și experiențele prin care trec. Monica are un mod aparte de a te ancora în tot procesul de autocunoaștere și vindecare. O recomandat cu drag și căldură!

Am apelat la Monica pentru ca nu reuseam sa depasesc singura socul creat de constientizarea unei realitati complexe si triste. Simteam ca nu sunt eu, ceva mai puternic decat mine parea ca ma transforma intr-o persoana necunoscuta mie, si de care nu imi placea. Incepusem sa imi pierd interesul in ceea ce ma inconjoara , desi recent mutata intr-o tara noua pe care imi doream sa o explorez, cu un job nou si cu colegi faini, imi petreceam timpul liber pe canapea, cocolosita in sentimente negative, uitandu-ma la seriale pe net si la cum trece timpul pe langa mine. Cu mult tact si rabdare, Monica a facut ordine in sentimentele mele, le-a pus pe categorii si le-a dat nume, si astfel le-am putut intelege si accepta - I embraced my feelings and emotions. My state of mind era un morman de haine amestecate, care acum incep sa fie asezate frumos pe raft, si pot vedea ce merita pastrat, ce-mi lipseste, si ce poate fi transformat. Monica helped me understand where I’m standing and what my reality is. It took 12 - 15 sessions. Moving forward, I want to work on making my reality how I want it to be.

Discuțiile cu Monica m-au ajutat mult. Îmi place mult că datorită terapiei cu ea, evoluez, mă cunosc mai bine și găsesc claritatea, pe care, in situații, fiind implicat, nu o vad de fiecare data. E un om super fain, cu răbdare, un ascultător plăcut și atent, lucru important pentru mine. Mă bucur că există și pot să recomand un terapeut ca ea. Recomand!

My previous overwhelming fears, depression and anxiety are finally taking a calmer backseat as I drive my life forward. When I first started working with Monica 20 sessions ago, I was lost in a complex tangle of relationship issues, compounded with life traumas, and long-learned bad habits battering my own self esteem that I couldn’t begin to wrap my mind around. As our sessions went on, I found myself gaining unexpected clarity, respect and compassion for myself and others (even those who I’ve though of as enemies). I’m becoming friends with my fear, my anxiety, my depression, and even my need to control at times. My relationships are making healthy strides forward and so am I. While I’m nowhere near perfect and my internal struggles accompany me on my bumpy journey, I have the tools to maintain and operate my life in better harmony. I’m deeply grateful to Monica for facilitating a safe space to unravel, unfold, break down, and come to some very real realizations. My experience with Monica has been life changing. I’m growing, healing, and ready for life to bring whatever it’s bringing. Lows, highs, whatever, I can do this!
