Monique Zarate

My communication style

I utilize active listening and reflective responses to elicit deeper insights, which allows me to create a safe, non-judgmental, and productive environment.

My journey to mental healthcare

I've gained a strong foundation for understanding people and complex systems. I discovered a passion for supporting others, which led me to become a mental health provider. I believe therapy is a safe space where clients build confidence, tap into resilience, heal from challenges, and grow.

My goals for you

Clients are the experts in their own lives. My job in the therapeutic setting is to provide guidance and collaborate with you in creating treatment goals that will serve as your guide to therapy. It is also important to understand that treatment goals can be modified as you begin to grow, learn, and change throughout the therapeutic process.

Our first session

Our first session will serve as an introduction focused on understanding your needs, current challenges, and discussing your goals for therapy. The first session also gives you the opportunity to ask about my approach and determine if you feel I am a good fit in your therapeutic journey.
