Who Is Monica
Guided by the meaning of my name—Monica, or "advisor"—I have spent over 30 years serving individuals, couples, and families from diverse socioeconomic, cultural, and spiritual backgrounds across therapeutic, hospital, and community settings.
Grounded in cultural humility, I provide a compassionate space to help you prioritize self-care as an act of self-love. My practice supports clients facing challenges with:
- Identity: Eating disorders and body image concerns
- Mood: Anxiety, depression, and self-esteem
- Life Transitions & Trauma: Grief, trauma, and existential crisis
- Relational Dynamics: Interpersonal stress, family conflict, divorce, couples, and intimate partner violence
I am particularly passionate about supporting marginalized populations and communities of color. As an active listener, I collaborate with you to harness your strengths toward healing outcomes that align with your personal values.
I hold a Master’s in Counseling Psychology from the University of San Francisco, a B.S. from the University of Missouri–St. Louis, and Domestic Violence Advocate training through SAVE. Outside the therapy space, I love music, theater, roller skating, dancing, and spending quality time with my children. My work and life are anchored in my core values: honesty, integrity, justice, kindness, and grace.
