Meet Monique

I am a licensed psychologist in the state of California with over seven years of clinical experience. I've worked with adults, older adults, college students, and engineers. My experience in multiple mental health settings, from community mental health, urban hospital centers, medical offices, and a federal government agency have helped me to gain the knowledge and skills to work with people from diverse backgrounds and needs. I offer an integrative model that incorporates evidenced-based approaches, therapeutic relationships, intuition, and culture. Many of my clients have commented on my personable approach to treatment. While I have respect for the application of theory to practice, I do not apply a one size fits all approach that is tethered to one approach.
