Monique Murray, LCPC

Monique Murray is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Maine with ten years of professional experience. She has worked with people facing stress and anxiety, those coping with addictions, and individuals managing depression. Her work emphasizes practical support and a respectful, collaborative relationship in which the client’s own knowledge and strengths guide the process.

Monique approaches each person as the expert of their own story and helps them identify the internal resources and skills needed to move through challenges. She aims to create an encouraging environment where taking the first step toward therapy is recognized as an important act of courage. Prospective clients can expect a therapist who values their strengths and supports steady progress toward their goals.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Care

Monique uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on building practical skills and drawing on each person's strengths. One core element of her work is strengths-based, client-centered support - she helps clients identify their existing resources and use those strengths to address stress, anxiety, depression, and challenges related to addiction. This approach centers the client’s perspective and priorities.

Alongside that perspective, she employs skill-building strategies designed to help people manage symptoms and improve daily coping. These techniques teach concrete tools for managing stress and navigating difficult emotions, and they are applied collaboratively to match the client’s goals.

Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Monique works together with clients to determine which techniques best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made. Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives and to connect with licensed professionals from wherever the client is located within the therapist’s service area. This flexibility supports consistent participation and ongoing momentum in therapy.
