I’m Monique Watson, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with 20 years of experience, and I started this practice to ensure every patient has a space where they feel truly heard. I hold a post-master’s degree and specialize in helping people navigate anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and postpartum depression through a supportive, collaborative approach.
My name is Dr. Regina Clark, DSW, LCSW, and I work with children, teens, and adults who have experienced trauma and are ready to begin their healing journey. I specialize in trauma-informed care, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), solution-focused therapy, and play therapy for young children.
In our sessions, you will find a safe, supportive space where you are seen, heard, valued, and never rushed. I believe every person’s story deserves compassion, understanding, and care. My practice is rooted in authenticity, empathy, and a genuine commitment to helping clients navigate life’s challenges while building resilience and emotional wellness.
I do this work because healing can be difficult, but you are not meant to walk through it alone. I believe growth, restoration, and healing are possible, and I am honored to support individuals and families as they move toward hope, balance, and lasting change.
I believe in helping clients feel better and offer hope immediately.

I have experience sitting with a variety of clients which is what makes me approachable and warm. I enjoy helping people discover the best version of themselves!
This is a telehealth practice. As a personal choice, the use of narcotics or other controlled (DEA) meds are minimal, if any. I've been a psych nurse practitioner for at least 14yrs. I believe in managing conditions with psychiatric and non-psychiatric treatment modalities that are evidence based. The use of the least amount of meds, at lower doses that does the healing of symptoms, is an active process involving the client and based on the reported experiences. Safety is the core of my practice and my job is to help clients understand internal signals and how to prevent another crisis.
