Bring connection and authenticity back into your relationships
meet your guide: dr. monica
Have you always dreamed of a life where you finally feel:
Comfortable in your own skin?
In control of your inner-critic and anxiety?
Confident in navigating challenging interactions with significant others and family members?
Like the relationships in your life fill you up instead of draining all of your energy?
Are you ready to make a change but not sure where to start?
You’ve come to the right place.
Hi, I’m Dr. Monica!
I empower adults just like you:
Ones who have it within them to stop simply surviving and start thriving, but just need the right support to get there.
I help my clients find empowerment, clarity and relief by equipping them with the tools they need to reconnect with their authentic selves and better understand how unresolved traumas from their past are showing back up in their present relationships.
Many clients with relational trauma often feel overlooked and misunderstood, leading so many to feel lost in their therapy journeys and wondering if there is anyone out there that can truly understand their pain and help them heal.
I know that your circumstances are unique, so together we will uncover and blend your innate strengths with the skills, experience and knowledge I offer to help you achieve deep healing and find a renewed sense of calm, choice and connection within your life.
First, we’ll dive into your past and examine the childhood relationships and experiences that are causing the emotional distress that you’re experiencing today.
Then, we’ll identify the negative narratives that you’ve adopted so that we can reshape them in a way that will be most transformative for you.
Through our work together, you’ll be equipped with all of the tools and skills you need to audit the relationships in your life and build an inner circle that leaves you feeling fulfilled, confident and excited about your future.
my values
-
Trauma often unfolds within the context of relationships, and I believe that healing must also happen within relationships. My role is to cultivate a safe, nurturing, space where you feel truly seen, heard and validated. Through this connection, profound shifts in perspective can occur, paving the way for growth and authentic reconnection in your life.
-
Collaboration is at the heart of my therapeutic approach. I believe that by working together as a team, we can tap into the power of shared insight and creativity to navigate your unique journey towards healing.
-
Relational wounds are healed only when we touch them with compassion and understanding. In our sessions together, I will model what true compassion looks like and empower you to be kinder to yourself so that you can foster genuine self-acceptance and understanding.
I am dedicated to helping you grow
With my years of experience in helping people overcome relational trauma, I’ve cultivated the understanding and expertise you deserve to guide your growth along this journey. But, at the end of the day, you want to know that you’re working with someone who gets what it means to struggle with feeling disconnected, unfulfilled and confused as they walk through life, right?
I understand because I have devoted my career to walking alongside individuals as they work to overcome the challenging childhood relationships and experiences that are continuing to show up in their adult lives. I know that sometimes it can be overwhelming to think about digging up the past. So when we work together, you won’t just get a trained psychologist. You’ll get a seasoned guide that can safely help you revisit your past, rediscover who you authentically are and, ultimately, help you reshape the way you connect with yourself and others.
