About Monica

Pronouns: She/Her/Hers
Identities: LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, Spiritual/Transpersonal

I believe our greatest desire as human beings is to feel alive and connected — to ourselves, to our bodies, to others, and to life itself. Everybody has the right to feel resilient, seen, and valued. Yet sometimes along this sacred journey of life, our experiences cause us to close off the parts of us that desperately want to be seen and embraced. As a mindfulness-based transpersonal counselor, I believe that each personal experience in our development is part of human life, and therefore worthy of attention. Through exploring not only our minds — but our bodies, hearts, and souls we can cultivate self-awareness and radical acceptance, grow our capacity for connection and love, and embody the authenticity that allows us to move towards a fuller, freer, and more whole expression of who we truly are. 

I strive to offer compassionate and individualized care to clients in the hopes of empowering them to feel competent in handling concerns that impact their quality of life. I utilize spiritual-based experiences, mindfulness techniques, and embodied movement to support people in finding a home inside themselves and developing a deeper connection to their Higher Self. My approach is holistic, present-centered, relational, trauma-informed, and socially justice based. I recognize your innate wisdom and am not here to change you, but rather stand by your side as a fellow traveler on a journey to your innate goodness. Creating a container where you feel safe, seen, held, and empowered is my top priority. 

I have found profound meaning in working with a diverse range of people, from domestic violence survivors to adults, youth, and groups. I have served individuals in both the LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities. My experience includes working with: spirituality, conflict resolution, trauma, loss and grief, anxiety, depression, and personal growth. 

In my free time I enjoy doing yoga, being in nature, dancing, live music, writing poetry, and connecting with loved ones. 

“You have only scratched the surface of what you’re capable of. There are decades of victories ahead of you.”
