Hello! My name is Monica.

I’m a graduate student currently completing a master’s degree in Counselling Psychology at Adler University. Alongside my coursework, I’m completing a thesis that investigates the mental health and recovery of victims (survivors) of sexual assault whose cases went through the criminal justice system. My hope is to put forth recommendations based on these findings to better support victims and their mental health as they navigate this process.

I approach therapy through the lens of Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Attachment Theory. This means that I view people as having many different “parts” that have been shaped through life experiences, such as important relationships, significant life events, and trauma. Some of these parts that were once necessary for protection may now be keeping us in patterns that no longer serve us. As an Intern Counsellor, my role is to support you through this journey - as we uncover these inner parts and patterns, meeting them with empathy and compassion for doing the best they could and getting you here today, and in making the changes you want to see in yourself or your life.

When you walk into your therapy session with me, you can expect to be met with warmth and empathy. Know that it’s natural to feel nervous if this is your first time trying therapy, and anytime you start seeing a new therapist. We’ll work together to shake out the nervous jitters and create a space built on safety and trust.

While completing my practicum at Scott Sheere Wellness, I have availability at the Vancouver and Port Moody locations, as well as online. My practice will be directly supervised by Nina Sheere and Heather Scott.
