About Monica

Monica Oleksy is a BACP-registered therapist with ten years of experience supporting people through periods of stress, loss and life transition. She offers a calm, listening presence that helps clients explore difficult feelings, make sense of painful experiences and build practical ways to manage everyday challenges. Monica works collaboratively to deepen self-understanding and identify what each person needs to move toward a more fulfilling and resilient life.

Her practice covers a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, parenting, trauma and abuse, grief, eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, and challenges with self-esteem. She also supports people facing ADHD, panic attacks, social anxiety, post-traumatic stress and compassion fatigue, and attends to related areas such as body image, guilt and shame, isolation, forgiveness and life purpose. Monica adapts her approach to each person rather than following a one-size-fits-all model.

Monica is comfortable working with cultural difference and pays attention to how cultural factors shape a person’s situation and needs. She communicates in English and Portuguese and accepts international clients, offering a professional therapeutic relationship grounded in respect and openness. Monica’s BACP credential indicates membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, reflecting recognised professional standards in the United Kingdom.

Therapeutic approaches and accessible online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person rather than the problem, using empathic listening and acceptance to help clients explore feelings, clarify values and build confidence. It can be useful for issues such as low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and general life transitions.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches practical ways to notice thoughts and bodily sensations without judgement, helping people reduce reactivity to stress and manage symptoms of anxiety, worry and sleep disruption. Practices are straightforward and can be integrated into daily routines.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying strengths and small, achievable steps toward preferred outcomes. It is goal-oriented and helpful for people seeking clear strategies to address specific problems like parenting challenges, work stress or coping with change.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Monica works collaboratively with each person to consider their needs, goals and preferences and to tailor the way she works so it fits the individual.

Online therapy with Monica is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent support from registered professionals, whether managing day-to-day stress, navigating relationships or working through major life events.
