Monica Malhotra

Monica Malhotra is a counsellor practising in London with eight years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship issues, bereavement, low motivation and depression. Monica also supports those dealing with self-esteem, substance misuse and life transitions such as divorce and separation.

Her style is person-centred and practical. She offers a respectful, non-judgemental space where clients can talk through what matters to them. Monica aims to help people notice their strengths and build on what already works in their lives.

Sessions are tailored to each person’s needs and goals. Monica focuses on helping clients shift perspective, strengthen resilience and develop realistic strategies for day-to-day life. She does not promise quick fixes but supports steady, meaningful change.

Monica draws on eight years of practice to guide people through difficult moments. She pays attention to patterns such as attachment, shame or control issues and helps clients identify small, manageable steps forward. The approach is collaborative and paced to each individual.

People who want a calm, empathetic listener who also offers practical tools may find her approach helpful. Monica speaks English, Hindi and Punjabi, and works with adults seeking to address emotional strain and personal growth.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Monica uses a person-centred way of working which centres on understanding each person’s experience and listening without judgement. This approach helps when someone needs space to talk through stress, grief or relationship worries and to find their own next steps.

She also emphasises practical, strengths-based work that highlights past successes and builds small, achievable strategies. That style is useful for tackling low motivation, self-esteem issues and coping with life changes because it focuses on real tasks and gradual change rather than abstract ideas.

Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. Monica will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most helpful, adjusting pace and focus as goals and needs evolve. This is a joint process where the counsellor and client review progress and change direction if needed.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow a quieter, more flexible check-in when that suits the person. They can also make shorter follow-ups simpler to schedule while maintaining continuity of care.
