“Meeting Monica, being her student and understanding the power and reach of her theory has been completely life-altering. Not only [did this] enhance my practice and allow me to serve my clients better, but it also transformed my life in ways that surpassed my expectations. Through this work, I developed a whole different way to coach clients. I see myself using these principles daily.”
— Anahi Ortiz-Prieto
“It is in the space of child-like presence and creativity that we show the full expression of our authentic selves.”
As the creator of The HEART approach, Dr. Monica combines her comprehensive training as a Registered Social Worker and Psychology Ph.D. with a deep commitment to relational mindfulness.
With 22 years of experience as a therapist, university instructor, and extensive doctoral-level research, Dr. Monica has put together the most transformative practices to help others live in full expression. Self-love, boundaries, emotional release, and becoming a powerful creator of dreams and meaning, are the foundations of The Self-Awakening Retreat.
