Meet Monica

My approach is warm, collaborative, and evidence-based. I work with children, teens, and adults, creating a safe space where clients feel heard and understood. I blend CBT, EMDR, mindfulness, play-based methods, and trauma-informed care to support healing and growth. My style is direct yet compassionate, meeting clients where they are. I specialize in ADHD, ASD, anxiety, trauma, emotional regulation, and confidence building. My goal is to help each person feel grounded, capable, and connected to their strengths.
