About Monica
Monica Connell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Colorado with four years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and life changes. Monica also addresses workplace strain, relationship and intimacy concerns, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and confidence issues.
She focuses on listening first, reflecting back what she hears, and helping clients name the root causes of their concerns. Sessions include collaboration to set clear goals and practical steps to reach them. Monica emphasizes building momentum so daily life feels more manageable.
Her background as an LCSW and LICSW informs a social-work lens that connects practical problems to larger life patterns. She supports people who are coping with midlife shifts, career transitions, caregiver stress, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. Monica also works through attachment and abandonment themes when these come up.
In sessions she attends to communication problems, anger, guilt and shame, and impulsivity. Monica uses coaching-style elements when appropriate, pairing them with clinical perspectives to help clients make concrete changes. She aims to help people regain more control over routines, work, and relationships.
Monica offers day and evening hours. To begin she asks people to share what they’re needing and to complete a short intake so she can understand priorities and match on a plan.
BHow sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Monica uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address trauma and stress. Trauma-focused work helps people make sense of painful events and reduce their hold on daily life through repeated, focused conversations and practical coping strategies. For anxiety and depression she applies structured problem-solving and behavioral strategies that break down overwhelming tasks into small, doable steps and test what helps in everyday routines.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Monica will collaborate with each person to identify goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust the plan as progress is made. She treats the choice of techniques as a shared decision rather than a fixed prescription.
The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow check-ins during a lunch break or evening hour, and reduce travel time. Phone or video sessions can help when short check-ins are needed or when being on camera is not preferred.
