About Monique

Monique Willett uses cognitive behavioral therapy as a core part of her approach, blending structured skill work with empathic, person-focused care to help clients address stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, addiction, and related concerns.

Background and approach

She emphasizes building a strong therapeutic connection early on, believing that a trusting relationship creates the foundation for practical skills, clearer communication, and meaningful change. Monique draws on techniques from DBT, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing alongside solution-focused strategies to tailor interventions to each person’s needs.

With 13 years of experience, Monique offers a collaborative style that centers on listening, validating, and meeting clients where they are. Her practice attends to a wide range of issues including trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related problems, sleep difficulties, parenting and career challenges, ADHD, bipolar symptoms, and co-morbid conditions.

She works to identify individual strengths and coping skills, then helps clients develop concrete tools for daily life and long-term goals. Monique is licensed in North Carolina as an LPC and LCMHC and conducts sessions in English for people based in North Carolina.

Using CBT and Client-Centered Care Online

Monique often integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centered techniques when working with clients online. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and learning practical skills to change behaviors and emotional responses, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday challenges. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration so individuals feel heard and that goals reflect their own values and priorities.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Monique works together with each person to explore which methods feel most helpful, adjusting interventions based on the client’s goals, preferences, and progress. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy remains relevant and responsive as needs evolve.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility for people with busy schedules or mobility constraints. These options allow for ongoing skills practice, check-ins between live visits, and multiple ways to engage that can fit different comfort levels and daily routines.
