Monique Young, LMFT

Monique Young is a California-licensed therapist with five years of clinical experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and related concerns. As an LMFT, which stands for Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, she brings training in relational and individual work to support clients across life transitions and mental health challenges.

She approaches therapy with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, tailoring conversations and treatment plans to each person’s unique needs. Monique emphasizes practical strategies and collaborative planning so clients can build coping skills, improve communication, and reconnect with sources of resilience and self-compassion. Seeking change takes courage, and Monique provides steady support and empowerment for people taking the first steps toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Evidence-Based Techniques Delivered Remotely

Monique Young uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skill-building to reduce stress and manage anxiety. These approaches help people identify unhelpful thinking patterns, develop coping strategies, and build healthier routines that support daily functioning and mood regulation.

She also applies trauma-focused, evidence-based interventions designed to help people process difficult experiences and work through grief and loss at a pace that feels manageable. These interventions aim to restore a sense of safety, improve emotion regulation, and strengthen relationships impacted by trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative process. Monique works with each person to determine which techniques match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made to ensure the best possible fit.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility for busy lives.
