Welcome

to Strength Redefyned, where your needs are the priority. There's strength in vulnerability and giving yourself grace.

I am passionate about serving black women leaders, military individuals (& couples), fellow providers, and other high achieving professional black women. Often times, driven and highly motivated black professional women experience depression, anxiety, & high levels of stress that can present as feeling anxious, over-tired, nervous, difficulty concentrating, low motivation, challenges with sleep, as well as other commonly overlooked symptoms. 

 

The demands of your career and personal life can create fatigue, whether physical and/or emotional.

Testimonials

"I spent roughly 4 months doing counselling with Monique on issues such as anxiety, relationship issues and self esteem.

As someone who was new to counselling, I was very nervous about it. Monique always made me feel comfortable and was very understanding when I was talking about the issues I was facing. She helped me set goals and work towards them in a very supportive and constructive way, with great feedback and at a pace I was comfortable with. She is flexible and responsive. Very grateful to have had her support through a challenging time in my life.
