Monica is an awesome listener who provides encouraging feedback. She helps me see the positive possibilities in a situation and especially with people instead of the negatives, and always encourages me to think of what things and what people are life-giving for me.

Monica has been a great support in my life - as I’ve grown older, my circle has naturally gotten smaller and she’s been someone who’s a cheerleader and empathetic towards what goes on in my life and in my head and has helped provide a 3rd person view on how to view the world and what I might want out of it. I would strongly recommend her
