Monique is a Licensed Social Worker who works with children, adolescents, young adults, and families. She has experience supporting clients navigating anxiety, ADHD, emotional regulation challenges, and life transitions. She is especially passionate about helping children and teens build confidence, strengthen coping skills, and feel more secure in themselves and their relationships. Monique approaches therapy with warmth, curiosity, and a strong emphasis on building meaningful relationships. She creates a supportive and engaging space where clients feel comfortable expressing themselves and working through challenges at their own pace.

When working with children, she incorporates play-based techniques and structured interventions to support emotional expression and skill-building in a developmentally appropriate way. She also works closely with caregivers, offering parent coaching and guidance to help reinforce progress at home and strengthen family relationships. In her work with adolescents and young adults, Monique provides a thoughtful space to explore identity, anxiety, relationships, and life transitions, helping clients build insight and confidence as they navigate this stage of life.

Monique draws from evidence-based approaches, including cognitive behavioral and DBT-informed strategies, while incorporating strengths-based, relational, and play-based techniques. She tailors her approach to each client’s developmental level and individual needs. She also has additional training in grief counseling. She earned both her bachelor's degree in psychology and her Master of Social Work from the University of Michigan. Outside of the therapy room, Monique enjoys traveling, staying active, getting lost in a good book, trying new restaurants, and spending quality time with friends, family, and her cat, Doja.
