Monique Parr

Monique Parr is a licensed clinical mental health counselor based in North Carolina; she holds a state clinical counseling license (NC LCMHC 13017) and has 6 years of experience providing therapy services.

She earned a bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a minor in Sociology from Fayetteville State University in 2004, and completed a Master of Science in Professional Counseling at Grand Canyon University in 2014.

Her background includes more than 10 years delivering direct care and four years in management and administrative roles, with responsibilities that have included program management, quality and compliance and risk management, human resources obligations, and financial reporting.

Monique believes entering therapy is a personal choice that establishes a therapeutic relationship where personal and emotional concerns can be explored. She focuses on building trust to support effective and efficient outcomes, aims to do no harm, and works to motivate change while supporting clients’ decisions. As an advocate who pays attention to detail, she considers the physical, emotional, mental, social, cultural, political, and spiritual dynamics that influence a person’s life. Her theoretical orientation combines holistic, person-centered, cognitive behavioral, transtheoretical, and relationship-oriented approaches.

She cultivates an environment that welcomes change and provides warmth, empathic understanding, genuineness, and acceptance. Monique emphasizes autonomy and freedom of choice and seeks to help people feel safe enough in the therapeutic relationship to explore less visible parts of themselves and move toward their authentic self. She looks forward to hearing from you soon.
