About me
I have been a Licensed Clinical Social worker since 1996, with experience as a therapist. I have worked with teenagers helping them to navigate many issues, and challenges including ADHD, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, grief and loss, communication problems, trauma, and addressing challenges related to school.
My experience in working with teenagers comes from both my personal experience as a parent, as well as, my experience working in the field with teenagers. The issues that teenagers face in today's ever changing society contribute to a variety of emotional challenges, ones that teenagers, and their parents, are often ill-equipped to handle. We have no manuals that come with each one of our children giving us specific instructions on how to parent them, and how to uniquely approach the child who is crying out, or acting out for help.
As your therapist, I work with the parent, as well as, the child, to identify the issues, the pitfalls, the strengths and to work with those strengths to determine the best direction to go in therapy. Working to alleviate conflicts, and create a better understanding of what the unmet needs are, can often contribute to healing, and resolution of parent-child conflict.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Monica Grey. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.
She is the best
Monica is great and she really helped me with a tough period of my life. Highly recommended!
The best person I could have ever hoped to have come into contact with as a therapist. Monica is therapy. She lacks nothing; in my humble opinion. Professional tact, warm and magnetic, helpful and mindful and Monica exudes confidence without bravado. I am incredibly thankful for her talent, knowledge, expertise and caring nature. If you’re not comfortable sharing with Monica then you may not be able to share with anyone. Thank you again Monica!
I have found working with Monica to be an incredibly positive and helpful experience. She is very compassionate and supportive. Offers many helpful tools and insights. Monica is very easy to chat with
She is excellent, very compassionate and receptive
Thank you!!
I have tried therapy multiple times and not had an easy time connecting with them. However, I have been able to connect with Monica very easily and am glad to have found her!
Monica is the best most understanding person. Her warmth is so comforting.
She has been amazing and helped me positively navigate many different situations successfully, highly recommend!
Monica Grey is great! She has been working with me on my anxiety and helping me figure out my life after the pandemic. I feel more at peace after each session with Monica.
I met with Monica Grey for four sessions. we went over my personal relationship concerns. Monica have me some tasks to complete which helped me review my situation. Monica guided me through questioning and I now have a better awareness of my reactions and how to make changes in my future communications.
I appreciate all the help I got from Monica. She offered different perspectives on my issues. She is very supportive. I appreciate her mature experience and feels like talking to a equivalent of Master Yoda. Who doesn't need a super wise woman in their life?
I usually need a little more time after the session to generate thoughts and questions. Through teen counseling, I am very glad I can send out my questions and thoughts on daily if needed and Monica will support instead of waiting until the next session.
I really appreciate the possibility to chat in between sessions. For me it accelerated to healing process and it is very appreciated.
This is next level and I will recommend Monica and the app.
I am very calm and relaxed when chatting to Monica, I think it is because she comes across as being very confident at what she does, she has helped me in every way possible, her professionalism is second to none.
I've worked with Monica for a while now and really look forward to our time together. She is an excellent listener and has a way of showing me other perspectives while acknowledging mine. I've accomplished what my goals were since joining teencounseling.com, and Monica is a huge part of why.
I have been working with Monica for 2 weeks now and feel that she has greatly benefited me. Of course online therapy can only get you so far, but despite living in 2 different continents, I feel that she is right next to me whenever we have a session. Looking forward to seeing where our work together takes us.
Monica is amazing! She really listens to you and helps figure out the exact tools you need for the challenge you are facing. She gave us so many helpful tools to build our marriage stronger.
I am very impressed with the matching system at teencounseling.com. Her background is closely aligned with my issues. A good match!
Monica’s compassion, intelligence & understanding has made a huge difference in our family. Thank you, Monica.
She was very helpful and helped a lot with my LGBTQ issues and gave useful information on how to deal with depression.
Monica is helpful, empathetic and supportive.
Monica is a very loving individual who has been very empathetic towards us and our circumstances. I can say I’ve never felt judged or unheard. She really tries to understand both of our point of views and remains neutral. I appreciate her professionalism and kindness.
Counceling with Monica Grey have been a great and most importantly very effective therapy experience. She managed to provide guidance towards improvement without any judgement and intrusiveness and assistance in recovery from negative emotional issues, allowing to keep my space and pace. If warm and encouraging approach is something that works well for you as well, I would highly recommend counceling with her.
Finding Monica here as my therapist has truly been a blessing! She’s helped me work through a lot in the little time we’ve worked together and I look forward to working with her for years to come. Monica always has a calming influence on me, she’s introduced me to many new ideas and coping techniques. She is patient, insightful, kind, and highly knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!
Monica helped me and my spouse to a great deal. Very patient and nice person. Asked the right questions and made us feel very comfortable. Highly recommended.
Monica was an excellent counselor. She does a great job listening while also not being afraid to give you perspectives to think about. She's the best counselor I've gotten on teencounseling.com. I highly recommend her!
Monica is very professional, patient and understanding. We only had 3 sessions with her but I already see a positive shift in our relationship with my husband.
She is the perfect mediator for couples counseling, understands the struggle and frustrations of both individuals. Does not take side, and asks really good and important questions in our sessions that get to the nuts a bolts of our discord.
