Getting to know Valerie Mondesir
Hi there, I'm Valerie!
I am Valerie Juste Mondesir, a bilingual therapist (English & Creole) who has worked in the mental health field in various capacities. I work with individuals, couples, families, and other related systems. I have supported diverse clients across age, gender, sexual orientation, spirituality, culture, ability, and socioeconomic status.
My approach
As a structural therapist, I provide a comfortable and supportive environment where clients can identify unhelpful or harmful patterns or ways of thinking and find new, healthier perspectives. The goal is to help clients address problems within their systems? dynamics and structure and encourage individuals to seek alternative ways to manage their issues. Families and individuals are empowered to address conflicts, improve communication, and cultivate healthier relationships.
My focus
I have extensive experience working with individuals, couples, and families in crisis. Together, we will work to help you re-establish your identity and strengthen your understanding of who you are beyond the effects of anxiety, depression, cultural trauma, and other challenges you may be facing.
My communication style
I provide a comfortable and supportive environment where clients can openly confront issues and learn to better process their emotions.
My journey to mental healthcare
I worked as a social worker for over ten years before completing my Master?s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy at Fairfield University. I have been a practicing therapist since 2017. My aim is to create a safe space where clients can openly confront issues, learn to better manage emotions, and engage in working toward their unique goals.
My goals for you
I use a solution-focused and strength-based integration of different therapeutic methods tailored to your individual needs.
