Dr. Monique Thompson

Dr. Monique Thompson is a Texas-based psychotherapist with 23 years of clinical practice. She is a licensed professional counselor in Texas, holding LPC license number 17013, and offers focused, experienced care to adults facing a range of mental health and relationship challenges.

Her style is respectful and straightforward, with a solution-focused emphasis that many people find helpful - though she acknowledges that approach may not suit everyone. She aims to respond in a timely manner and maintains office hours from 8am to 3pm CST for scheduled work.

Over the course of her career she has accumulated 20,000 client hours, and she brings that depth of experience to clinical problem solving. She believes that people can make significant changes even when odds seem impossible, based on the repeated recoveries and breakthroughs she has witnessed in practice.

Three questions she is known to ask in therapy are:
1. If you had your financial life at 100% satisfaction, what would be left to do for you to be your ideal self?
2. Why? (no matter what people say, she tends to follow by asking, “why”?)
3. If when you awake in the morning, everything was changed for the better, what is the first thing you’d notice?

Approximately 60% of her caseload involves adult survivors of sexual trauma, addictions (drugs, alcohol, sex), and couples recovering from affairs. She also provides general mental health counseling for depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder, with particular experience supporting adults after hospitalization or those noticing symptoms for the first time. Additional services include pre-surgery psychological evaluations and group therapy.

She is the author of a couples workbook titled Infidelity Recovery Workbook for Couples: Tools and Exercises to Rebuild Your Relationship, which has ranked among the top 100 Dating Books on Amazon since its release in 2021.
