About Monica
Monica Giuffre is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, life changes, relationship and family issues, grief, low self-esteem, and ADHD. Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients.
Monica describes a collaborative, interactive approach. She listens to each person's story and helps them sort through practical next steps. She often draws on acceptance and commitment strategies to clarify values, and cognitive behavioral ideas to test thoughts and actions. Attachment-informed work appears in her practice as well, helping people understand patterns in close relationships.
Her early life experiences informed the reason she entered counseling, and she aims to be steady and present for people who felt unsupported. She prefers straightforward conversation, with a bit of humor and honesty when it fits. Monica encourages clients to identify what matters to them and to try small, actionable changes that line up with those goals.
Clients can expect a therapist who emphasizes collaboration. Sessions typically combine listening, reflection, and practical exercises. Monica pays attention to issues such as communication problems, caregiver stress, chronic illness, substance use concerns, attachment issues, and challenges around commitment and impulse control.

How sessions work
How Monica's approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take committed action toward those values. In practice this means naming meaningful goals and trying small behavioral experiments to move in that direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It often uses short exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and adjust behaviors that contribute to stress or low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns from early and current relationships and helps people notice how those patterns shape reactions in close relationships.Choosing a way of working is collaborative. Monica will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. She can mix techniques from different approaches and will adjust methods as progress is made and needs change.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people appreciate online sessions because they fit into busy days, avoid travel time, and make it easier to keep regular appointments. Other practical benefits include shorter check-ins when schedules are tight and options that reduce the need to be on camera if that helps with concentration. Licensed professionals can tailor the pace and structure of remote work to match everyday life and responsibilities.
