Welcome to A Heart to Heal Therapeutics LLC! I’m so glad you’re here. My name is Vee Monie, and I’m a dedicated mental health therapist with over a decade of experience in the field of social work and clinical care.

My journey began in 2014 working in residential treatment facilities with adolescent girls, where I created and facilitated life skills curricula focused on emotional regulation, self-worth, and healthy decision-making. Since then, I’ve provided therapy in a range of settings—including school-based mental health programs throughout Dayton, OH—supporting children, adolescents, and families with compassion and clinical expertise.

I am the founder and owner of A Heart to Heal Therapeutics LLC, a private practice offering high-quality therapeutic services to adults across Ohio through both telehealth and in-person sessions.

For clients seeking faith-based support, I also provide Christian Counseling, integrating biblical principles into therapy to support spiritual and emotional healing. This approach acknowledges the importance of aligning emotional wellness with spiritual truth, offering space to reconnect with God’s purpose and peace.

This is a space for transformation, healing, and self-discovery—and I am honored to walk beside you on your journey toward becoming the best version of yourself.
