As a Licensed Professional Counselor with LifeStance Health, she provides individual therapy grounded in evidence-based approaches for clients ages 15 through older adulthood. Whether someone is facing anxiety, depression, or the impact of trauma, Monique creates a supportive, structured environment where healing and growth can take place. Monique has clinical experience treating ADHD, anxiety disorders, and trauma-related conditions, as well as depression and mood instability. She works with teens, adults, and seniors who may be struggling with persistent worry, low motivation, intrusive thoughts, or the emotional aftereffects of difficult experiences. Drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and mindfulness-based interventions, she helps clients better understand the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while developing healthier coping strategies. She is particularly passionate about supporting individuals navigating ADHD, anxiety, and PTSD/trauma.

Her approach focuses on strengthening executive functioning skills, reducing avoidance patterns, and helping clients process traumatic experiences in a safe, collaborative setting. She also offers support to first responders, military members and veterans, and members of the LGBTQ+ community, recognizing the unique stressors these populations may face. Outside of her clinical work, she enjoys reading mystery novels, spending time with her family, baking, attending concerts and festivals, and crocheting.
