About
As a veteran, I offer a deeply personal understanding that helps me create a safe, supportive space, fostering connection and understanding.
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.

Christine Fatherree, LCSW, brings over 25 years of experience in the mental health field, working in a variety of roles to support adult clients seeking growth, healing, and clarity. She is deeply committed to helping individuals explore their concerns and make meaningful changes in their lives.
Christine works with adults experiencing depression, grief, life transitions, and trauma (though not military-related trauma). She understands that beginning therapy often starts with important questions—and that exploring those questions can lead to real transformation. Her therapeutic approach is tailored to each client’s needs, drawing from a range of evidence-based practices including traditional Talk Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing
(EMDR). This flexible approach allows Christine to offer personalized support that meets you where you are.
Christine is genuinely curious about your story and provides a safe, non-judgmental space to explore both your inner world and life circumstances. While therapy can be challenging, it can also bring moments of insight, relief, and even humor.
If you’re ready to begin the process of change, Christine is here to support you. Schedule an appointment when you’re ready to take the next step.

Hi, I'm Veronica Navarrete, a licensed clinical social worker dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges with compassion, clarity, and practical tools for growth. I hold a master's in social work from NMSU and have been practicing since 2009. For 18 years, I've supported clients managing anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and life transitions, using a blend of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, and strengths-based approaches.
Through cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), I focus on challenging and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, improving emotional regulation, and developing personal coping strategies that target solving current personal stressors.
You don't have to go through this alone. Whatever you're facing stress, anxiety, grief, or simply feeling stuck — your feelings are valid, and your story matters. You'll have a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be heard, supported, and truly seen. We'll work at your pace to find clarity, healing, and hope. I'd be honored to walk alongside you.

As one who has witnessed and experienced the impact of complex trauma, I have a deep sense of empathy and understanding of how emotional wounds can cloud our ability to live fulfilled lives.
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.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

My go-to approach for helping people in PTSD/trauma therapy is person-centered therapy. I prefer person-centered therapy because it allows the client to go at their speed, and be the owner of their experiences.
I teach the following tools in PTSD/trauma therapy: mindfulness (identifying how the body feels), creating safe places, and identifying and expressing emotions.
I know a client is making meaningful progress in PTSD/trauma therapy when they are able to not let their experience take a drastic toll on them.
Clients can supplement their time in PTSD/trauma therapy by keeping a journal of what their feelings and thoughts are.
To prepare for their first PTSD/trauma therapy session, someone can have an idea of what they would like to accomplish with therapy.
At Thriveworks, Trauma/PTSD therapy involves dedicated efforts to address and navigate through past and/or recent traumatic events. Therapists specializing in trauma create a secure environment to process and heal from these experiences, aiming to reduce trauma-related symptoms and enhance overall quality of life.
Our Thriveworks providers use Trauma/PTSD therapy treatments like eye movement desensitization and reprocessing EMDR, CBT, and exposure therapy with the goal of helping clients process the traumatic events they have experienced so that they can to start feeling safe and secure again.
The symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can vary but often include:
The best way to overcome PTSD triggers is to seek the assistance of a professional therapist, such as those at Thriveworks, who can help you to understand and treat your PTSD triggers.
In most cases, a therapist who specializes in Trauma/PTSD therapy is the best type of mental health professional to address the symptoms of PTSD.
PTSD/trauma therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
If a client is working through a single traumatic event that occurred as an adult, trauma or PTSD therapy may only take a few months, but in general, it can take a year or more to effectively treat trauma symptoms and PTSD. The duration of treatment is highly dependent on the client and the severity of their symptoms.
The success rate of therapy for PTSD depends entirely on the individual’s symptoms, commitment to attending sessions, and personal abilities.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
Includes reducing symptoms with medication & management
