Great to meet you!

Hello, I'm Monique Martin, an LCSW practicing in California. With five years of experience in the mental health field, I am deeply passionate about creating safe spaces for women to heal and enhance their emotional and psychological well-being. I strongly believe that encouragement, validation, collaboration, and support are essential elements in cultivating a path to healing.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My therapeutic approach is warm, interactive, and accepting. I understand the difficulty involved in taking the first step, and I aim to bring that understanding and comfort into our sessions. Whether you're struggling with overwhelming relationship issues, anxiety, or depression, I am here to assist you. It's completely normal for seeking therapy to feel intimidating, but rest assured that you are making the right choice. You deserve a safe space where you can heal and grow.

What you can expect from our first session

During our sessions, I will meet you with compassion, utilizing a combination of therapeutic techniques, including EMDR if it is appropriate for your needs. Together, let's work towards achieving your goals, healing from past experiences, and creating a more fulfilling life. If you're ready to take that step, know that I am here to provide support and empowerment along your journey.
