Getting to know Monica Silva
Hi there, I'm Monica!
I believe everyone deserves to achieve peace in their lives. I offer a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your core issues and work toward meaningful change. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness strategies, and psychoeducation, I help you develop insight, set goals, and take steps toward healing and growth. Healing is my passion—let me support you on your journey to a more mindful, fulfilling life.
My approach
I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you recognize how your thoughts influence your emotions and behaviors. With a mindful approach and tools from my therapeutic toolbox, I can support you in reaching your goals while tracking your progress. Together, we will navigate life’s challenges, empowering you to apply these skills in real time.
My focus
Do you feel overwhelmed, frustrated, or lost? Do you find yourself wondering if life can be better? Now more than ever, children, adolescents, and adults are struggling to navigate life’s challenges. Using a blend of psychoeducation, mindfulness, and evidence-based approaches, we will create a personalized treatment plan to support your goals and empower you to live a more fulfilling life—at any age!
My communication style
My approach is warm, supportive, and conversational. I create an empathetic, judgment-free space where I can help you reframe negative thoughts and provide you with coping skills and feedback.
My journey to mental healthcare
I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Texas State University, which deepened my commitment to helping others. I’ve always felt a deep calling to support people through their struggles. Throughout my work with children, adolescents, and adults in various settings, I have been continually inspired by their resilience and strength. I consider it a privilege to support others on their journey, and I am truly honored to be a part of their growth and healing.
