Monique Harding, LCSW

Therapy

Greetings!! My name is Monique and I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 15 plus years of professional experience. Due to this longevity I have had the blessed opportunity to work with all ages and different populations. Adolescents- which includes the whole spectrum- is one population I've worked with the most and consider my niche! As a result I am experienced in assisting teens with processing stress, depression, anxiety; trauma and abuse; coping with grief and loss; learning better coping skills & focusing on one's strengths which improves self esteem. I treat everyone with respect, am an attuned listener and exude a lot of compassion and empathy. I will facilitate our dialog and tailor the treatment plan to meet your specific, individual needs. My main role is to support and encourage you through your current process of positive transformation. My holistic, evidence based approaches will create a union which leads to your goal attainment and inner stability, in a safe manner. As a young person, agreeing to start therapy takes a lot of courage- and once you begin, it will become evident on how it also is a strength!

Ivanna Reyes, LMHC

Therapy

Hi! My name is Ivanna Reyes and I am a Bi-lingual Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. My approach to therapy consists of CBT, DBT, and motivational interviewing. Every client is different and every approach should be tailored to the client rather than the client being tailored to the approach. I am here to provide support and suggestions of course, but I like giving my clients the ability to discover their own strengths through their treatment! I utilize an open, non-judgmental approach to treatment and believe everyone has the ability to make a difference.
