Hi, I'm Bernave Vega, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), National Certified Counselor (NCC), and doctoral candidate in Counselor Education and Supervision. I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, identity exploration, and life transitions. I have specialized training in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and enjoy helping children and teens heal from difficult experiences while also supporting adults and couples in building healthier, more connected relationships.

My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each client's needs. I integrate evidence-based approaches including TF-CBT, CBT, ACT, DBT, attachment-based interventions, and emotion-focused work to help clients process difficult experiences, strengthen coping skills, improve relationships, and build lasting resilience.

Reaching out for support takes courage, and you don't have to navigate life's challenges alone. Whether you're seeking help for yourself, your child, or your relationship, I look forward to creating a safe, supportive space where healing, growth, and meaningful change can begin.

I’m a Licensed Master Social Worker with a background in outpatient therapy, inpatient psychiatric care, and residential treatment, supporting both adolescents and adults. Most of my work centers on helping people navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, family conflict, and major life changes. My focus is providing a grounded, reliable space where clients can slow down, regain stability, and move forward with clarity and self‑trust.

I use trauma‑informed, strengths‑based methods to help clients understand their experiences and develop tools for healing. You can expect a supportive, steady space where we focus on clarity, emotional regulation, and sustainable progress.

You deserve a space where you feel heard, supported, and safe to grow. When you’re ready to take the next step toward healing and clarity, I’m here to walk alongside you.

I'm a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with a Master's in Social Work and several years of experience across a range of settings, including individual counseling and suicide prevention programs in rural Texas schools. I work with children and adolescents navigating self-esteem, trauma, social challenges, anxiety, depression, coping skills, and behavioral issues, as well as adults facing trauma, mood and personality disorders, interpersonal difficulties, anxiety, and depression. My clients are often seeking space to build resilience, deepen self-understanding, and develop tools for lasting change.

I integrate DBT and CBT for practical coping skills, play therapy for younger clients, and psychodynamic work to explore deeper roots of struggle through a trauma-informed and culturally responsive lens. Using motivational interviewing, I meet clients where they are, helping them build insight, resilience, and lasting change at their own pace.

Whatever brought you here, know that reaching out takes real courage, and you don't have to carry it alone. As someone who understands the cultural weight placed on silence and strength, I hold space for you to feel seen, respected, and understood, as you are. I'd be honored to walk alongside you as you take this next step toward healing.

Welcome! I am Monika Parker, a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate and National Certified Counselor in Texas, who is currently being supervised by Adam Dueber LPC-S. I earned my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Grand Canyon University. I invite Military & Veterans, military families, adolescents and adults.

My approach is collaborative and grounded in evidence-based practices such as CBT, DBT and a person centered approach. We will focus on building a strong therapeutic relationship where you feel safe, connected, and free to show up as your authentic self while creating space for reflection, healing, and growth.

I aim to champion holistic mental health and walk alongside individuals as they navigate their journey toward self-understanding and fulfillment. What drives my work is witnessing the transformation that happens when clients move from moments of vulnerability to a place of confidence, clarity, and empowerment.
