Meet Monique: Our Incredible Parenting Coach
We’re so excited to introduce Monique, a valued member of our team! With over 20 years of experience supporting children and families, Monique is a highly skilled parenting coach dedicated to helping families thrive.
**Why does a trauma therapist have parenting support on the team?**
Parenting can be one of life’s most rewarding experiences—but it can also be incredibly challenging, especially when unresolved childhood trauma comes to the surface. Healing from personal trauma while navigating the complexities of parenting can feel overwhelming. Add the weight of intergenerational trauma, and the task can seem even more daunting. That’s why having someone like Monique on our team is so essential.
Monique is here to support parents with tools and strategies to help create secure, connected, and healthy family relationships. She specializes in the *Circle of Security*, an evidence-based approach that helps parents understand and meet their child’s emotional needs while building strong, resilient bonds. This framework empowers families to break cycles of trauma and foster safety and trust across generations.
*”When we heal ourselves, we create a ripple effect that heals those around us—especially our children.”*
If parenting feels like an uphill battle, know that you’re not alone. Healing while parenting is hard—but with the right support, it’s possible to create a brighter future for you and your family.
Reach out to us today to learn more about how Monique can support you on this journey. Together, we can build a foundation of connection, safety, and growth for the next generation.
