01About Monique
Monique Rourk helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, and relationship or intimacy concerns. She also supports those facing grief, anger, bipolar challenges, ADHD, and major life changes. Monique works in a straightforward, down-to-earth way so people can talk through what matters most to them.
Her style is calm and flexible. Sessions focus on the client's goals and fit the person rather than a rigid method.
Background and approach
Monique encourages people to take an active role in choosing what to work on and which tools to try. Sometimes that means talking and processing feelings; sometimes it means practicing specific skills to manage symptoms. She uses a mix of client-centered techniques and cognitive behavioral methods, plus elements from dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing.
That mix is used to build self-awareness, coping skills, and healthier patterns in daily life. Work can include addressing attachment or abandonment concerns, codependency, body image, and communication problems. Monique brings 20 years of experience to her practice and holds a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling.
She is licensed as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, and as a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC. Her background includes focused work with trauma, PTSD, addiction, mood disorders, sexual and BDSM-related concerns, and personality-related issues. Clients come away with clearer goals and practical steps they can use between sessions.
Monique aims to help each person build emotional stability, improve decision making, and find ways to live with more satisfaction and self-respect.

04Online support
How her approaches work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and supporting the person where they are. The therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects what matters, and helps people set goals that feel right to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful habits and reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, emphasizes building emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills to manage intense feelings and relationship stress.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked in the past. Together they try methods and adjust the plan until it feels useful and manageable for day-to-day life.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people see facial cues and do deeper conversations. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging work well for ongoing tracking, quick support between sessions, or when writing helps organize thoughts. These options make therapy more flexible for different schedules and needs.
