About Monje
Monje Moore is a New York State Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 30 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, relationship strain, and family of origin issues. She also helps people coping with grief, career changes, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and intimacy-related concerns.
Moore uses practical, straightforward methods in sessions. She listens for how family roles, expectations, and early attachments shape current behavior. Then she offers tools from cognitive-behavioral approaches and skills-based work to change unhelpful patterns. Sessions often include exercises to manage strong emotions and build clearer communication.
Her background includes a Master’s degree in Counseling and Development from Long Island University and a School Counseling certification. Over three decades she has worked as a clinician, therapeutic counselor, foster parent trainer, parenting skills instructor, school counselor, and school administrator. That range informs how she talks about parenting and family dynamics.
Core methods she draws on include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. Conversations aim to increase practical coping, improve relationships, and reduce repeated patterns from childhood that still affect daily life.
Monje frames therapy as collaborative. She uses brief skill-building, reflective conversation, and behavior-focused practice. People come away with clearer choices, more effective communication, and steps they can try between sessions.
How her approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking actions that matter despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It can help people stuck in avoidance or who want more consistent choices aligned with their priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress management.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then recommend methods that fit. That collaboration helps decide whether ACT, CBT, DBT skills, attachment-focused conversation, or a mix will be most useful.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy lives - they can make it easier to have regular check-ins, shorten a meeting to focus on immediate needs, or schedule around work and childcare. Therapists and licensed professionals often use the same therapeutic exercises and skills training online as they would in person, so practical tools and communication work can continue across formats.
