About Monje
Monje Moore is a New York State Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with three decades of experience. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, or parenting challenges. She also supports those coping with relationship strain, intimacy issues, career changes, and ADHD-related concerns.
Her style is straightforward and practical. Sessions focus on clear goals and tools to manage daily life. She listens for what matters to each person and adjusts the pace to fit their needs.
Background and approach
Monje trained at Long Island University, earning a Master’s degree in Counseling and Development and a School Counseling certification. Her background includes roles as a clinician, school counselor, school administrator, foster parent trainer, and parenting skills instructor. Those varied roles shape a broad, experienced view of common life stresses.
In sessions she draws on evidence-based approaches such as cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness, while also using person-centered and attachment-based ideas. She mixes methods to match each person’s goals rather than following one fixed script. People can expect a collaborative process that balances understanding with practical steps.
The work often includes skill-building for emotion regulation, communication, and managing impulsivity or anger. For many, that combination helps them feel steadier and more capable in daily life.
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small, meaningful actions toward those values while learning to sit with difficult thoughts. It is often useful for people handling anxiety, depression, or life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. CBT can help with anxiety, low mood, impulsivity, and many day-to-day challenges.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, temperament, and situation. That might mean trying a few techniques and adapting what works best over time rather than committing to a single method from the start.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues when they matter. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions, do shorter problem-focused work, or fit therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier to schedule consistent care and practice skills in real-life situations.
