Monique Parr , LCMHC

Monique Parr is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in North Carolina, licensed under NC LCMHC 13017. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor in Sociology from Fayetteville State University in 2004 and later completed a Master of Science in Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University in 2014.

Her interest in mental health began early and has guided a multifaceted career. She has provided direct clinical care for more than a decade and has spent four years overseeing management and administrative responsibilities, including program management, quality and compliance and risk management, human resources obligations, and financial reporting. Those experiences inform a balanced perspective on both client care and organizational systems.

Clinically, her orientation blends holistic, person-centered, cognitive behavioral, transtheoretical, and relationship-focused approaches. In therapy she prioritizes building a trusting, therapeutic relationship that supports change, respects autonomy, and attends to the full range of a person’s physical, emotional, mental, social, cultural, political, and spiritual dynamics. Her role is to avoid harm, advocate for clients, motivate change, and support client choices while paying close attention to detail.

She works to create a warm, accepting environment characterized by empathic understanding and genuineness, where clients can safely explore difficult or hidden parts of themselves and move toward greater authenticity and self-directed growth. She looks forward to hearing from prospective clients soon.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Monique Parr

Monique Parr draws from several evidence-informed approaches to tailor online therapy to each person’s needs. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns of connection and helps people work through abandonment, attachment, and relationship concerns by building new, more secure ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a nonjudgmental, empathic space where the client’s experience guides the work and fosters autonomy, self-acceptance, and personal growth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Monique collaborates with clients to determine what best fits their goals, preferences, and circumstances. She adapts techniques from different models as needed and emphasizes shared decision making so therapy aligns with each client’s values and pace.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video call or phone, and shorter check-ins are possible via live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit consistent care into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access support from home or other locations when needed. Licensed professionals and therapists can use these modalities to deliver meaningful, goal-focused work that fits modern life.
