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.
I am passionate about helping clients find their voice to put words to their unique experiences. I approach each session with compassionate curiosity to provide you with a safe space to show up as your most authentic self. I hope that you feel seen, heard, understood, and accepted. I am enthusiastic about seeing my clients move towards health and healing. I consider it an honor and a privilege to support you throughout our work together.
My specialty is adult love and creating bonding experiences in couples and families. I’m a Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and an Addiction Specialist (LCAS). Helping people repair and reconnect after times of distress is my passion. I help people heal by increasing security, closeness and emotional connection in relationships. I help couples better understand their partners’ emotional responses, as well as their own. I also enjoy helping couples overcome addiction in relationships.
As a licensed marriage and family therapist with 18 years of diverse experience, I proudly welcome people of all backgrounds. I provide therapy for individuals, couples and families and work with the following modalities:
• Somatic Therapy – Releasing trauma and stress stored physically in the body.
• EMDR – Processing distressing memories to reduce emotional triggers.
• Gottman Method – Strengthening communication and intimacy for couples.
• Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) – Healing relational bonds in couples and families.
• DBT-Informed – Managing intense emotions and building mindfulness skills.
• CBT – Reshaping negative thought patterns to change behaviors.
• Person-Centered – Providing a compassionate, non- judgmental space centered on you.
