Monica Govindarajan
Hey there, my name is Monica Govindarajan M.S.,LPC and I graduated from Texas A&M University – Commerce where I received my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I am a trauma model therapist and my approach to counseling is holistic, personalized, and collaborative. Every individual is unique, what works for one may not work for another – through understanding, open communication, and perspective taking I work to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to feel comfortable in being yourself. A little about me: Coming from an Indian cultural background, I am a culturally competent counselor and enjoy working with the BIPOC community and am an ally with the LGBTQ+ community. I value authenticity, music, art, and enjoy spending time in nature with my dog. I also love learning about cultures and new languages.

First session
I take a collaborative approach to therapy where I will work to help you achieve your goals. I work to provide a safe and warm environment that allows you to feel comfortable and conducive to growth and change. Change is hard, and I will work to help gently challenge you and help identify unhelpful patterns that get in the way of you becoming the version of yourself you want to be.
Strengths
My niche is working with survivors of trauma, be it simple, or complex (more than 1 traumatic incident). I work survivors of sexual assault and violence, childhood trauma, relationship trauma, dissociation, depression, stress and anxiety. I am an inclusive therapist and work with individuals from any cultural background, gender identity, and sexual orientation.
