Reaching out for therapy is a courageous first step. If you're looking for a therapist who will meet you with compassion, curiosity, and a whole-person approach to healing, I'd be honored to support you on your journey. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and five years of clinical experience. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. Whether you're facing a major life transition, struggling with anxiety, navigating relationship challenges, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to create a space where you can safely explore what's happening beneath the surface and move toward lasting change.

Britney Monahan

Therapist

Virtual • Texas


My approach to therapy is conversational, down-to-earth, & grounded in genuine human connection. I bring 14+ yrs of clinical knowledge & evidence-based practices to sessions w/o making therapy feel overly formal. I believe you should be able to laugh, cry, get mad, be honest, ask questions, & say whatever is on your mind w/o fear of judgment.


Together we will slow things down, make sense of what's happening beneath the surface, challenge what isn't working, & find ways forward that actually fit your life. There will be honest conversations, thoughtful insight, practical tools, and - when appropriate - a little humor along the way.
