About Monique
Monique Foster is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with six years of counseling experience. She works with adults on problems such as stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting stress, and anger. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.
Her approach draws from several evidence-based methods. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck in them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try practical experiments to shift behavior. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills may be taught for managing intense emotions and building distress tolerance.
Monique’s background includes work in substance recovery settings, psychiatric hospitals, and educational institutions. She has experience across life stages from young adults to older adults and previously taught Human Services at the college level. That mix of clinical and teaching roles informs a practical, skills-focused style in sessions.
In appointments she focuses on building a clear working relationship. Conversations move toward small, actionable steps - skills to practice between meetings and ways to notice progress. She frames therapy as a collaboration where both people contribute to the work.

How sessions work
Approaches used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting driven by them. It focuses on clarifying values and taking committed actions that align with what matters, which can help with anger and ongoing stress.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It uses short experiments and practical exercises to test unhelpful thinking and try new responses to stressful situations.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills. Those tools can be useful for managing intense reactions and improving communication in tense moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, habits, and preferences, and together decide which methods to emphasize. That collaboration helps shape the session plan and homework between meetings.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the profile does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove commute time so skills practice can be scheduled more regularly. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and DBT exercises to remote sessions to focus on coping with anger, stress, and relationship strain.
