About me

First let me just say congratulations! It takes courage to seek help. You’ve taken the first step on a journey to wholehearted living. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for 16 years, I have partnered with individuals and families from all walks of life and facing a range of challenges, people just like you who want to feel more peace and joy and less pain and conflict. I serve as a guide, a support to help you build on your strengths and find ways to remove or work around the barriers you face and the areas where you feel stuck but you are the expert on you!

Therapy doesn’t have a one size fits all so I will pull from a range of therapeutic interventions to find a strategy that best serves you. I am trained in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and CBT generally. I have a whole person approach so mental health is only one aspect to optimal wellness. I also pull from my background and life experience so let me tell you a little about me…
I am a bi-racial and adopted into an interracial family from birth. I grew up in a home with vast diversity of not only race but country, language and religion. So I deeply value the diverse experiences we all bring. I am a mother of children from ages 28 to 5 (nope not a typo) and can related to the challenges of parenthood whether single or married. My faith has helped me overcome the most difficult of life’s challenges but I am not here to judge or convert anyone.

I am grateful you are here seeking what we all need to grow and thrive, someone in our corner! If I can be that person for you, please reach out to me in whatever way is most convenient for you!

Working with Monisha has changed the way I think about myself and the world around me for the better. At the risk of sounding cliche, working with her has my life.

Written on Nov 30, 2021 after therapy with Monisha for 5 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self esteem, career difficulties, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue

Monisha is compassionate, empathetic and responds quickly. She is a wonderful listener, has thoughtful, informative responses --likely due to her abundance of experience.

Monisha is a thoughtful and wonderful counselor. She takes the time to listen to you, clarifies if she is intercepting your thoughts and feelings as you tell them to her and offers meaningful strategies to accomplish your goals. I would highly recommend her as a counselor.

I’ve only began working with Monisha for a short period of time however I feel I am beginning to make progress. She offer techniques where I don’t feel good overwhelmed and for me to remember to take small steps to reach big goals.
