Monet Daniels

Creating a safe and supportive environment where clients can share their experiences without fear of judgment is at the heart of Monet Daniels' therapeutic approach. As an Associate Professional Clinical Counselor (#11885) at Claremont Counseling & Support Center, Monet brings a unique blend of warmth, creativity, and clinical expertise to her practice.

Monet's educational background is as diverse as her therapeutic toolkit. She holds a master's degree in Counseling from Loma Linda University and another in Behavioral Psychology with an emphasis in Applied Behavior Analysis from Pepperdine University. This dual specialization allows her to approach client concerns from multiple angles, offering a comprehensive treatment approach.

Specializing in anxiety and depression, Monet works collaboratively with her clients to identify achievable goals tailored to each individual's needs. Her experience extends to working with couples, individuals dealing with mild to severe depression (including postpartum depression), anxiety, various severities of trauma, chronic pain, grief and loss, as well as addressing emotional and communication limitations within families and other relationships.

Monet's therapeutic style is characterized by its flexibility and client-centered focus. She understands that therapy is a vulnerable process and is committed to meeting clients where they are, while remaining culturally sensitive. Her approach incorporates elements of humor and creativity, believing that therapy can be both meaningful and enjoyable. This playful aspect of her practice helps engage clients and allows them to explore their emotions in a non-threatening way.

At the core of Monet's practice is the belief that therapy is about the whole person. She works with clients to unpack and deconstruct distorted ideas and inaccurate beliefs they may have about themselves, guiding them towards connecting with their healthiest and most authentic selves. Through this process, Monet helps clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns, developing new and more positive ways of thinking and behaving across various domains of their lives.

Monet's personal interests, which include cooking, traveling, watching anime, gaming, and enjoying sports like football and basketball, inform her ability to connect with a diverse range of clients. These interests not only make her relatable but also demonstrate her belief in the importance of a well-rounded life outside of the therapy room.

With Monet Daniels as their therapist, clients can expect a therapeutic journey that is as unique as they are. Her combination of professional expertise, warm demeanor, and creative approach creates an environment where personal growth is not just possible, but inevitable.
