I am a therapist, who is being supervised by Christopher Hansen LPC-S, with a B.A. in Psychology from Texas A&M University and an M.S. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Texas at San Antonio. My professional journey began in the nonprofit sector, where I recognized a gap in access to quality mental health care and was inspired to further my education to better serve those in need. I work with older adolescents, young adults, and individuals in later adulthood navigating anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, psychosis, and other concerns. I strive to help each person feel understood while we work together toward personal growth.

My approach is tailored to each client's unique needs. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), person-centered, and trauma-focused approaches to provide care that's responsive. I believe meaningful progress happens within a collaborative relationship and creates lasting change that feels aligned with your goals.

I know how much courage it takes to open up and begin this process. I also know how important it is to feel genuinely seen, heard, and met with empathy. You deserve that kind of space. Therapy can be a powerful opportunity to create meaningful change in your life, and you don't have to do it alone. When you're ready, we can take that first step together.

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. 

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Dialectical Behavioral Therapist with over 20 years of experience. I am honored to come alongside individuals facing challenges in relationships, anxiety and depression, and difficult or traumatic experiences. These can lead to hopelessness, despair, fear, shame, and guilt, and I appreciate the opportunity to help those in need find hope, purpose, meaning, restoration, and joy. I also work with young children, preteens, and adolescents and their families navigating situations like divorce or sudden loss, as well as couples who wish to repair and rebuild. 

My approach is to join you as a guide through your healing journey, almost like a therapeutic Google Map—you stay in the driver's seat. While we're together, you'll be in an environment free of judgment where you can be truly seen and heard. Younger clients will have a creative space to communicate through play and process the chaos and stress around them. 

Therapy can feel vulnerable and is sometimes seen as a sign of weakness. In truth, seeking help is a sign of strength and bravery. We were wired and built to do life together, and your motivation to seek help is actually you doing what you are built to do. I truly hope and look forward to working with you so you can see what is possible for your life.

I earned my Master’s in Clinical Rehabilitation Counseling from the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley. I also hold a Bachelor’s in Rehabilitative Services. My background in rehabilitation and counseling allows me to integrate empathy, structure, and strength-based strategies to support each client’s growth and healing journey.

In our sessions, you can expect empathy, respect, and collaboration as we work together toward positive change. My goal is to create a safe space where you feel heard, validated, and supported while building resilience and confidence to live a more balanced and fulfilling life.

I am passionate about supporting individuals and families in my community by creating a compassionate, empowering space for healing and growth.
