About Mona
LCSW licensed in Florida with five years of clinical experience, Mona Awad focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. Mona draws on client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people address practical problems and emotional pain.
Mona begins by listening to each person's story and identifying the most urgent concerns. She treats clients as active participants in planning care and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions are straightforward and goal-oriented, with small, manageable steps between meetings.
Her approach is practical. She helps people notice patterns of thought and behavior, test new ways of responding, and practice changes between sessions. For trauma and abuse concerns she focuses on stabilization and coping skills before moving to deeper material.
Mona also supports people dealing with relationship strain, family of origin issues, divorce and separation, abandonment concerns, and caregiver stress. She addresses life transitions such as fertility or immigration-related adjustments and aging or geriatric issues in a similarly practical way.
People who prefer clear structure and tools alongside listening often find this approach useful. Mona works in English and accepts international clients; she is based in Florida and uses a subscription-style payment system that can be canceled at any time.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy puts the person's perspective first and focuses on listening and understanding. Online sessions using this approach involve open discussion, reflection, and collaborative goal-setting to address stress, self-esteem, and relationship concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches practical skills to change them. In online sessions CBT typically includes short skill-building exercises, homework between meetings, and tracking thoughts or activities to measure progress.
Choosing the right approach happens together. Mona will work with each person to decide whether client-centered work, CBT, or a mix best fits the issue, goals, and preferences. This is a collaborative process that starts in early sessions and can be adjusted over time.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce time spent traveling. Many people find remote sessions help them practice skills in everyday settings while keeping scheduling simpler.
