About Mona
Mona Bartram is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Texas with 20 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship or family concerns. She also supports clients facing sleep problems, career transitions, trauma and abuse, and other life changes.
Mona uses straightforward conversation and evidence-informed methods to address daily struggles. Sessions tend to focus on practical skills, clearer communication, and steps people can try between meetings. She listens for what matters most to each person and builds on strengths they already have.
Her approach draws on several therapy styles that target thoughts, feelings, and behavior. That can mean learning tools to notice and shift unhelpful thinking patterns, practicing acceptance of hard emotions while moving toward values, or working on emotional connection and interaction patterns that affect relationships.
She has worked with a wide range of concerns over two decades, including caregiving stress, chronic illness and pain, attachment and abandonment issues, and end-of-life and hospice related needs. Mona also addresses feelings of emptiness, guilt, shame, impulsivity, and communication problems that show up across life roles.
People who meet with her can expect clear explanations of methods and small, doable goals to practice between sessions. The aim is to make therapy fit real life demands - work, family, health, and community responsibilities. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
BHow sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how they translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then focus on actions that match their values. This can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with major life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches specific skills to change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with anxiety, sleep problems, and depression. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at emotional responses and interaction patterns to improve communication and connection in relationships. It can help when people struggle with attachment, abandonment, or ongoing relationship conflict.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with each person and decide together which methods suit their goals and daily life. That collaborative process can include trying one approach for a few sessions and adjusting if it does not meet the person's needs.
Confirm the session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific online or in-person options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule - for example a shorter check-in during a lunch break, or avoiding travel time around work and caregiving duties. They also allow continued work during relocations or when family demands make leaving home difficult. Ask about the exact booking and session formats when you start the matching questionnaire to confirm what is offered.
