Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.

Online session options
How narrative and acceptance work in online therapy
Monje uses Narrative Therapy to notice the stories people tell about themselves and their relationships. She helps clients separate the person from the problem and then look for alternative, more helpful storylines that support change. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) which focuses on clarifying values and taking small, value-driven actions. ACT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions when someone wants practical skills to move toward what matters. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they choose methods and adjust them over time so the work fits each person’s life and needs. Online formats make this collaborative work more flexible. Video calls let people meet face-to-face from different locations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow ongoing support between sessions and can help with moment-to-moment coping and planning. These options let people fit therapy into busy schedules and try different ways of working until they find what helps most.Common questions about this listing
