About Monique
Monique Foster is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people manage stress and anxiety. She supports adults facing depression, addictions, trauma, grief, and relationship or intimacy-related challenges. Her work also includes coaching around career shifts, parenting strain, and coping with life changes.
She brings six years of direct counseling experience and earlier roles in teaching, recovery programs, and psychiatric settings. That background informs a practical, down-to-earth style.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on clear steps you can try between meetings rather than abstract theory. Monique uses several approaches to fit each person’s needs. She draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clarify values and take meaningful action.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Client-centered skills guide the conversation to stay focused on what matters to the client. Her prior work has included educational settings, substance recovery programs, and psychiatric hospitals, and she has experience teaching human services at the college level.
Those roles contribute to a flexible, informed way of working with varied concerns. Monique encourages an active partnership in therapy. She aims to respond promptly to messages and prefers collaborative planning so goals stay realistic.
People who want a practical, steady approach to anxiety and related concerns may find her style helpful.
How her approaches translate to online care
Monique integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in practical ways. ACT helps people name what matters most, accept difficult feelings, and take small steps that align with their values. CBT focuses on identifying and changing thought and behavior patterns that feed anxiety or low mood.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods in sessions, and adjust plans based on what helps most. That collaborative process makes it easier to find techniques that fit personality and daily life.
Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be a good option for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging let people share thoughts in writing and fit support into busy days. These options give flexibility for ongoing work on anxiety, coping skills, and life transitions.
