Getting to know Monica Barrameda

Hi there, I'm Monica! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Hope International University (HIU). This message is for men who are searching for new inner meaning and strength through life’s struggles, whether it be trauma, anxiety, or depression. I’m here to help you build your emotional intelligence and tap into the masculine genius hidden beneath your self-doubt. My approach My work varies based on each client’s needs. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and develop new, more helpful perspectives. I also incorporate Somatic therapy, recognizing that trauma is stored in the body, to provide a more holistic therapeutic experience. My focus My style is a good fit for male teens and young adult men facing challenges related to life transitions, work, relationships, and family dynamics. These challenges often present as trauma, anxiety, depression, and stress. My communication style I communicate in a calm, accommodating, and personable way. I want my clients to feel heard and understood. I prioritize clear communication and approach each situation objectively. My journey to mental healthcare I became a therapist to help others, especially men. I want men to develop their emotional intelligence so they can thrive in their relationships with themselves and others. My goals for you I set goals based on your needs and track progress over a 3-month period. My first session with you In our first session, we’ll spend most of the time discussing how you’ve been feeling recently. I’ll ask questions to better understand why you may be feeling that way. This session is about building an initial connection and helping me determine the best path forward. Everyone is different, so I listen first before deciding what will work best for you.
