All About Dr. Monique
Dr. Monique is a doctorate-level, dually licensed behavioral health professional with a specialty in integrated behavioral health encouraging and guiding others to make healthy behavioral changes.
She provides services in English and Spanish.
What was Dr. Monique's path to becoming a therapist?
I originally wanted to be a lawyer but life happened and I experienced some trauma, had a child, helped find someone to guide me through her trauma, and figured that after being on the “other side of the couch,” I wanted to create a safe space where clients can come and not feel judged. I’ve worked in a plethora of settings, from jails to hospitals and everything in between. I feel like I’ve heard it all before, so nothing comes as a surprise to me. I’ve learned to create a safe space for others to be their authentic selves so they can take off their “masks” and just be them - whatever that is.
What should someone know about working with Dr. Monique?
I work from a philosophy of honesty, transparency, and authenticity. I hold clients accountable for their actions and support them through their journeys of self-discovery by using what I refer to as, "compassionate confrontation." I usually assign homework to clients in an effort to motivate behavioral change and consistency of new habits.
What does Dr. Monique specialize in?
I specialize in immigration evaluations, high-conflict custody/couple cases, therapeutic support for adult sex workers (including FSSWers), and sex trafficking survivors.
What does Dr. Monique do to continue learning and building competencies as a provider?
I maintain my education by attending webinars, workshops, and in-person training events. I enjoy learning about all topics, especially how to improve my current skill set. I try to collaborate with other providers worldwide to learn best practices, embrace new skills, and network.
