When working with parents she emphasizes positive and attachment-focused parenting strategies, aiming to help caregivers adopt new, more rewarding ways of relating to their children. Monica brings a warm, easygoing style and practices with sensitivity, respect, and compassion. She is committed to collaborating with individuals and families to identify practical steps toward improved coping and well-being.
