Monique’s therapeutic approach is grounded in empathy and creating a safe, non-judgmental space where individuals can explore their experiences and show up authentically. She incorporates evidence-based techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and Psychodynamic Therapy, and tailors her approach to meet each client’s unique needs and background.
