Therapy for Queer Women of Color Helping you break free from society's bullshit and live life on your own damn terms!
Imagine a life where you own your choices, embrace your identity, and live unapologetically.
Are you ready to ditch the "shoulds" and start living for yourself?
You're surrounded by people telling you what you "should" do, how you "should" feel, and who you "should" be. It's enough to make you want to scream. You're craving a space to just be unapologetically yourself, to figure out what YOU want instead of living up to everyone else's expectations. You know there's a spark of rebellion in you, a desire to live life on your own damn terms, but figuring out how...that's where things get messy.
"You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending."
—C.S. Lewis
I Believe in Your Power to Rewrite Your Story.
Hi, I'm Monique “Mona” – your guide on this journey to self-discovery and healing. As a Black, queer therapist, I get it. Therapy isn't about changing you into someone 'perfect'; it's about uncovering the kickass person you already are beneath the self-doubt, people-pleasing, and past hurts. Here, it's all about cutting through the bullsh*t, facing the tough stuff head-on, and building a life that genuinely reflects who you are.
This isn't just about talking; it's about transforming. Imagine waking up feeling excited about the amazing woman you are. You have healthy boundaries, clear communication skills, and a deep sense of self-worth. Your relationships are built on trust and authenticity, and your sex life is a source of pleasure and connection. You navigate challenges with confidence and embrace your true self, societal expectations be damned.
