Practical, Skill-Building Therapy That Fits Your Life

Monica Farrer integrates evidence-informed approaches that help clients better understand what they are feeling and choose effective next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing patterns in thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and then practicing new ways of responding, which can be especially helpful for stress, anxiety, depression, and everyday coping challenges.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds structured skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication, supporting clients who feel overwhelmed, stuck in intense emotions, or caught in repeated conflict. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented style that helps clients explore ambivalence and strengthen motivation for change, which can be useful when working on habits and addiction-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Monica works collaboratively with clients to clarify goals, identify what has and has not helped in the past, and shape sessions around individual preferences, strengths, and current needs.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. This variety can make it easier to fit support into a busy schedule, continue work between sessions, and access care from a comfortable setting.
