Monya Holt, LMHC

Monya Holt is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. She offers a calm, nonjudgmental approach for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, grief, or relationship concerns. Her style aims to help people take small, practical steps toward feeling more in control.

She focuses on creating a space where thoughts and feelings can be shared openly. Sessions emphasize listening and collaboration so clients can set goals that feel achievable. Monya frames change as a process and supports each step along the way.

Her background includes seven years of professional experience working with addictions and co-occurring mental health concerns. She also addresses issues such as codependency, intimacy-related problems, midlife transitions, and career strain. The work she does often includes helping people manage life changes and rebuild self-esteem.

Monya primarily offers virtual sessions on Saturdays and can often accommodate weekday evenings after 5 PM Eastern Time when asked. She uses a subscription model for scheduling, and sessions can be canceled according to that plan. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire that helps match them and then schedule according to her availability.

Her approach draws on practical methods to identify patterns, set clear goals, and build everyday coping skills. People who want straightforward support for addictive behavior, relationship stress, or major life transitions may find her style helpful.

How her approaches work in online sessions

Monya uses client-centered therapy to build a respectful, listening-focused space where clients set the agenda and priorities. This approach helps people feel heard and guides the conversation toward what matters most to them.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and to practice new ways of responding. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, and managing everyday stressors. Motivational interviewing is another tool she uses to support change when someone feels stuck, especially around addiction or lifestyle changes; it focuses on exploring personal motivations and strengthening commitment to change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That process may shift over time as priorities change and progress is made.

The biography notes she primarily offers virtual sessions on Saturdays and can often make weekday evenings after 5 PM Eastern Time available by request. If you want to confirm which session formats and times are currently offered, check the booking options before scheduling. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so sessions are simpler to attend.
