Monje Moore , LMHC

She often cites Robert Frost when describing her approach - "The best way out is always through." Monje Moore is a New York State Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), and she brings more than 30 years of clinical experience to her work. Reaching out for help can feel daunting, and she aims to meet that courage with compassion, practical strategies, and a steady focus on moving forward.

Monje helps people navigate a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma and post-traumatic stress, dissociation, neurodevelopmental challenges, and stress tied to relationships or life transitions. Her work supports individuals and families through parenting struggles, self-esteem and intimacy issues, grief, and the everyday challenges that can undermine balance and resilience.

She earned a Master’s degree in Counseling and Development from Long Island University and holds a School Counseling certification. Across three decades she has served in roles as clinician, therapeutic counselor, foster parent trainer, parenting skills instructor, school counselor, and school administrator. These varied positions inform a broad perspective on development, family dynamics, and systems that affect wellbeing.

Therapy with Monje is collaborative and tailored to each person’s needs. Her practice draws on person-centered principles while integrating evidence-based techniques such as cognitive behavioral strategies, schema-informed work, mindfulness, and dialectical behavior strategies. The aim is not only greater insight but practical change that supports confidence, balance, and lasting resilience.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Healing and Growth

Monje integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) into her work to help people clarify personal values and take committed steps toward a life that matters to them. ACT focuses on building psychological flexibility so individuals can act in line with their goals even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise.

Attachment-Based Therapy is used to explore patterns formed in early relationships and how they influence current connections. This approach can be especially helpful for clients dealing with abandonment concerns, attachment issues, or challenges in intimate and family relationships.

Monje also draws on client-centered principles that prioritize a respectful, empathic therapeutic relationship in which the client’s perspective guides the process. Together with clients she tailors interventions from these approaches to fit each person’s goals and preferences, making the choice of method a collaborative decision rather than a fixed prescription.

Online therapy with Monje is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing care to fit into busy schedules and varied needs. These options increase flexibility for scheduling, make it easier to maintain continuity through life transitions, and support access to ongoing therapeutic work from familiar surroundings.
