About Monica
Monica Jha is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Tennessee with nine years of experience. She works with adults who feel stuck after changes in work, relationships, health, or identity, and with people facing anxiety, relationship strain, grief, trauma, addiction concerns, and questions about life purpose.
Monica describes an integrative approach that draws on several evidence-based methods to address emotional overwhelm and the practical problems that follow. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas also show up in sessions to help clients clarify values and take small steps toward what matters.
When trauma or complex feelings are present, Monica uses trauma-focused methods alongside solution-focused strategies to make progress on immediate problems. Sessions include concrete skills, short experiments to try between meetings, and attention to how thoughts and emotions affect daily life. The work is collaborative and paced to what each person can manage.
Monica helps people sort through parenting pressures, career crossroads, intimacy questions, and midlife shifts. She also supports those dealing with ADHD-related struggles, grief, anger, and compassion fatigue. Language offered is English and services are provided in Tennessee.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people name what matters and take small steps toward those values while accepting uncomfortable feelings. It is useful for people stuck by worry, avoidance, or a lack of direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and testing new, practical ways of coping; it is often chosen for anxiety, depression, and anger. Mindfulness Therapy trains simple attention and grounding skills to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment noticing, which can help with stress and emotional overwhelm.Figuring out which mix of methods fits best is part of the work. Monica treats the choice as collaborative and reviews goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. She adapts tools over time so sessions align with the client’s pace and priorities.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit around work, parenting, or medical appointments. Others prefer shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require video to accommodate bandwidth or quieter surroundings. The practical aim is to make therapy fit into everyday life while using ACT, CBT, and mindfulness exercises in ways that transfer to daily routines.
