Monique has a unique, way of helping me-she is very quick to see things in me that I didn't recognize and her funny and insightful way of helping has made me much lighter and more confident :-)

Very easy to talk to and highly attentive. She is not in a hurry and allows time for clients to fully express their thoughts, feelings, and opinions. Provides excellent feedback and suggestions.
