Monika Sury, LCSW

Monika Sury is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 12 years of experience helping people cope with stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, trauma, and low self-esteem. She works from California and offers care in English and Hungarian. Her approach centers on practical skills and steady support so people can feel more able to manage day-to-day challenges.

She creates a calm space to talk through what feels overwhelming. She listens for patterns that keep people stuck and helps them try new ways of reacting. Sessions focus on simple tools for managing anxiety, mood, and stress, plus ways to set boundaries and care for oneself.

Monika pays attention to attachment and relationship patterns, including issues tied to adoption, abandonment, blended families, and codependency. She also supports people dealing with chronic pain, illness, or disability and the caregiver stress that can come with those roles. She names these specific concerns so people with similar struggles can recognize a fit.

Her style is compassionate and nonjudgmental. She aims to help people build self-compassion and realistic plans for change. Work may include exploring how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect, then practicing different responses that feel manageable in real life.

How therapeutic approaches guide online care

Monika uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on real-life change. One approach emphasizes identifying patterns between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors so people can try small, manageable behavior changes to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Another approach centers on attachment and relationship patterns, helping people understand how early and current relationships affect trust, boundaries, and communication.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client work together to decide which methods fit the person's goals and preferences. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most, and clients are invited to give feedback about pace and focus.

For practical matters, confirm which session formats are offered before booking since the biography does not list them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins, or enabling work during a break. It can also make it simpler to connect across time zones for international clients. The therapist will discuss how to structure sessions so they work with daily routines and responsibilities.
