Monica Giuffre

Monica Giuffre is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, grief, and struggles with self-esteem and life changes. She offers a calm, steady presence and focuses on listening first to understand each person's experience. Monica aims to make sessions feel straightforward and human so people can speak honestly and begin to sort things out.

Monica brings five years of clinical experience to her work. She draws on approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try things that fit their values. Attachment-based and client-centered ideas guide how she builds trust and stays curious about each person's history.

In sessions she keeps language plain and practical. Conversations often include identifying small, doable steps, practicing new ways to respond to stress, and looking at how past relationships shape current choices. Humor and creativity are welcomed when they suit the person.

Monica has worked with people dealing with trauma and abuse, addiction, ADHD, body image concerns, chronic illness and disability, and relationship or communication problems. She also supports those facing grief, divorce, caregiving strain, dissociation, and issues around control or impulsivity.

She offers therapy in English and accepts international clients. To begin, people use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule based on availability. Fees vary with location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How her therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck. It focuses on clarifying what matters and taking small actions that match those values, which can help with anxiety, depression, and motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and uses practical exercises to test new ways of responding to problems like stress, compulsive behaviors, and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current patterns; it can help people understand trust, boundaries, and relationship struggles.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then try methods that fit. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made along the way based on what feels helpful.

If you plan to try online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, save commute time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people join from different locations or time zones. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and attachment-focused work to remote sessions through conversation, exercises, and between-session practice so the work stays focused on everyday change.
