Getting to know Monique Dixon
Hi there, I'm Monique!
Experiencing adversity is part of the human experience, and everyone deserves a safe space to heal and thrive. Whether you're facing communication challenges, wanting to develop insight, or managing traumatic responses, I am here to support you. Together, we will work towards solutions that promote resilience, connection, and well-being. At the foundation of all goals, I hope to instill and restore a sense of safety, trust, and empowerment in your life.
I hold a Master's degree in Counseling and Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of La Verne and earned my Bachelor's degree from California State University, Fullerton. In addition to my clinical work, I am passionate about advocacy and education surrounding trauma-informed care. I believe in raising awareness and reducing stigma around mental health and trauma, and I actively engage in community outreach and attend regular training to stay current.
My approach
Trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) is a structured therapy aimed at helping individuals, especially children and adolescents, who have experienced trauma. It integrates cognitive, behavioral, and emotional techniques to address trauma's psychological effects and promote healing and resilience. I have been certified in TF-CBT for two years and have used it to process various types of abuse and trauma. I have found this approach fosters empowerment, resiliency, and safety.
My focus
I am passionate about collaborating with disenfranchised populations seeking empowerment and tools to thrive but who may lack access to resources to take the next steps.
My communication style
I hold safety and empathy as the most important qualities within a therapeutic relationship. These qualities create a supportive environment where clients feel validated and understood, fostering trust and openness. My goal is to provide comprehensive, compassionate care tailored to each individual's unique needs.
