Transformation Through Expert Care
Offering Compassionate Support to Individuals, Couples & Groups Struggling With Substance Abuse/Mental Health Issues
PROFESSIONAL Counseling Services
MONARCA COUNSELING is a multicultural and gender-sensitive practice that provides counseling to individuals, couples, and groups who abuse substances - alcohol, cocaine, meth, heroin/fentanyl, and/or marijuana to avoid dealing with feelings or to feel something. There are often underlying issues of trauma, depression, anxiety, personality disorders, anger management as well as problems maintaining safe boundaries, be they emotional or physical. We work together to stop the use and address the issues that stand in the way of you leading the life you choose. Part of the process is looking at your past to understand it, how it got you to where you are now. Then, work on letting it go rather than holding on to it. And repeating it. Whether you are addressing substance abuse or mental health issues, whether you are an adult individual, a couple, or in a group, I will teach you the tools of CHANGE - motivational interviewing, confrontation, psycho dynamics, role-playing, behavioral, trauma work, creative work (writing/journaling, art, music, dance). We will select the approach (that works for you). I am willing to hear whatever your truth is and assist you to work with it rather than let it keep you down.
If a MONARCA (monarch butterfly) can fly several thousand miles from the U.S. mainland to the interior forests of Mexico and experience a series of transformations in its brief life cycle, then you too can take a chance on CHANGE. MONARCA COUNSELING will assist you on your path to change. I will be your CHANGE AGENT in the process.
