About Monique
Monique Parr is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor who practices in North Carolina. She holds a Master of Science in Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University and brings six years of clinical experience to her work. Monique emphasizes building trust as the first step in therapy and focuses on creating a warm, respectful space where people can talk about difficult feelings.
She aims to pay attention to the whole person - emotional, mental, social, cultural, and spiritual factors all matter in her approach.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and grounded in a person-centered stance, which means she listens closely and follows what matters most to each individual. Practical tools from cognitive behavioral work and skills from dialectical approaches are used when helpful. Monique also draws on attachment-focused ideas to understand patterns in relationships and Jungian perspectives to explore deeper meanings and identity.
This mix helps with concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, trauma and abuse, addiction, stress, ADHD, and self-esteem. She names specific areas like parenting strain, grief, body image, and career stress among common topics she addresses. Her style is described by priorities she sets in sessions - warmth, genuine listening, and encouraging autonomy.
She aims to motivate change while respecting each person's choices. Monique sees therapy as a place to safely examine difficult material and to practice new ways of coping. To begin, she asks people to consider what matters most to them and brings attention to small, workable steps toward their goals.
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Monique uses a blend of person-centered and cognitive behavioral methods to guide online work. Person-centered or client-centered therapy focuses on listening, acceptance, and following the person's goals; it helps people feel heard and build motivation for change. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and offers straightforward skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and address sleep or eating patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. That conversation helps decide whether to lean more on relationship-focused, insight-oriented, or skill-based strategies, and it can change as needs evolve.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reminders and brief coaching between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, school, or caregiving obligations.
