About Monique

Monique Foster is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who focuses on grief, stress, anxiety, addictions, and life changes. She speaks directly and calmly with people who are overwhelmed or exhausted. She invites clients to take a small step forward and says reaching out is the first move toward relief.

Monique brings about six years of formal counseling experience alongside a longer background in coaching, teaching, and consulting. That mix means she has worked with people at many life stages and in a range of settings, including educational programs, substance recovery, and psychiatric care. She also has experience teaching others who were training to become counselors.

Her style is down-to-earth and practical. Sessions tend to focus on clear goals, skills you can try between meetings, and honest conversation about what is getting in the way. She emphasizes building a working relationship where both people contribute to progress.

Monique draws on several approaches to fit different needs, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused methods. Those tools are used to address problems like sleep and eating concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, caregiver strain, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and compassion fatigue.

People who connect with her can expect prompt replies to messages and a straightforward plan for moving forward. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedules sessions based on availability.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying your values and taking small, meaningful actions even when strong emotions are present. It is useful for stress, anxiety, grief, and adjusting to life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and replace them with practical strategies for mood, sleep, eating, and anxiety issues. Emotionally-Focused work centers on feelings in relationships and on improving connection and communication when intimacy or relationship problems are present.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to your needs, goals, and preferences. You and the therapist will try strategies, check what helps, and adjust the plan together.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten travel time, support steady attendance during life transitions, and allow focused conversations from wherever you are. Licensed professionals can use these sessions to teach skills, review progress, and plan next steps just as they would in person.
