Trenton was originally called Bloomfield, but changed its name when it was discovered there was already a post office in Ohio by that name. Such changes were common in the founding and development of towns. Change is also common in life. Some change is good, while other change can be difficult. When you find life changing too fast for you, sometimes it can help to talk to someone outside the situation to get your bearings.

Trenton-area counselors are here for just that reason and more. Therapists can help you face the change happening in your life and help you come to terms with it so that you can move forward. Contact a counselor today.

Multiculturally aware, bilingual, independently licensed mental health therapist who understands that compassion and relationship building are at the core of the healing process.

The strength of the relationship is based on my ability to maintain a non-judgmental, trusting and validating environment for the client while encouraging growth.

Hi, my name is Monica. First, let me say that it takes a level of fortitude to ask for help from anyone, let alone a stranger. It is different than the bravery it takes to protect our country or our cities, different than the bravery it takes to walk into a room full of people, and even different than what it takes to perform on stage or on an athletic field. So please take a moment to acknowledge your inner strength! I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in the state of Ohio and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida. I have worked in the mental health field for 21 years in some capacity, including community mental health, forensic assessment, and school counseling. What I find most gratifying is that "light bulb" moment when the person in front of me realizes and understands their worth, their strength, or that sense of connecting the dots which is so empowering for growth. I work with the individual to help them see past the personal obstacles that brought them to me in the first place and be able to find the happiness or feel relief they seek. I listen, I accept, and I coach you into a better state of mental balance. My approach to therapy is to challenge thoughts and behaviors that impede productive living. Having said that, I also like to tailor my technique to the person I'm interacting with. I place most of my focus on our therapeutic relationship, which is the key to our success. I have training in Emotional Freedom Technique (Tapping) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). I work with those struggling with anxiety, grief, life changes, stress, or whatever else might interfere with living the life you deserve. So pull up a "couch" (your favorite chair or happy place, because with BetterHelp, you can do this wherever you feel most comfortable and safe) and let's get started. I am ready to listen and do what I can to help.
