Monica Burgos

Monica Burgos is a clinical social worker with a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker credential and more than 24 years of experience. She offers therapy in both English and Spanish. Monica pays attention to how culture shapes people’s lives and brings that awareness into sessions.

She aims to build a compassionate, non-judgmental space where clients can talk through what feels hard. Monica uses an eclectic and holistic style that is informed by trauma work. She adjusts her methods to fit the person in front of her rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.

Monica has worked across age groups, including children, adolescents, and adults. She has particular experience with anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. She also helps people facing relationship stress, intimacy concerns, low self-esteem, career transitions, and major life changes.

Her practice addresses many related struggles such as attachment and abandonment wounds, codependency, communication problems, body image, guilt and shame, and caregiver stress. Monica also supports people dealing with divorce or separation, blended family challenges, and the emotional fallout of natural or human-caused disasters.

Sessions focus on practical steps clients can take between meetings as well as deeper emotional processing. Monica describes her work as collaborative and culturally responsive, and she invites people to explore what kind of change would feel most meaningful to them.

Approaches that guide online care

Monica integrates trauma-informed care into her work, which focuses on understanding how past hurts affect current feelings and behaviors and helps people build safety and new coping skills. She also uses eclectic, holistic techniques that draw on multiple evidence-based methods to address anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, and intimacy concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Monica collaborates with clients to identify which methods fit their goals, needs, and personal preferences. Together they may try different techniques and adjust plans based on what helps most.

Confirm the specific session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a break. It can also help when quieter surroundings or lower-bandwidth options are needed. Licensed professionals and therapists can use online work to continue therapy between in-person visits or when scheduling needs change, but check with the therapist about which formats she currently offers.
