Hello, I'm Monique Randle, a proud out Black queer Christian clinical social worker based in Arkansas and Texas. I specialize in intimacy, sex, relationships, and self-discovery. With over a decade of experience as a certified sex therapist and EMDR therapist, I guide ambitious, non-traditional clients as they shed societal constraints to embrace authentic, fulfilling lives. Whether you're navigating trauma, redefining relationships, rediscovering your sexuality, or just on a journey of self-discovery, I'm here to empower your journey toward healing and personal growth.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, expect a safe, non-judgmental space where you can start to unfold your narrative at your own pace. We’ll explore your goals, challenges, and what you hope to achieve through coaching. This session is about building a connection and setting the groundwork for our journey together. I'll introduce some initial strategies to help you begin addressing immediate concerns, ensuring you leave feeling heard and with a sense of direction.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My greatest strengths lie in my deep empathy, bold approach, and specialized expertise in sex therapy and emotional trauma. I thrive on connecting with my clients on a profound level, enabling me to tailor interventions that resonate uniquely with each individual. My candid and empowering communication style helps clients confront and navigate complex issues confidently and authentically.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
In my therapy sessions, I use a method called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT for short. It’s all about helping you embrace your thoughts and feelings rather than fighting or feeling bad about them. We work together to figure out what truly matters to you—your values—and use that knowledge to guide you toward a more fulfilling life. It's like having a roadmap that helps you navigate through tough times and make decisions that really line up with who you are and what you want out of life. Whether we’re tackling relationship issues, personal stress, or past traumas, ACT is a tool that supports us in making room for meaningful change by accepting what is out of our control and committing to actions that enrich our lives.
EMDR
As a therapist, I've embraced the innovative virtual EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) method to effectively address a range of challenges, including anxiety, relationship stress, trauma, distressing memories, and negative thought patterns. In our virtual sessions, I guide you through the EMDR process, using specific techniques that help your brain process and heal from these experiences, even though we're not in the same room. This approach has proven to be a powerful tool in reducing emotional distress, transforming the way you handle past traumas and current anxieties.
Sex Therapy
As a Certified Sex Therapist, I bring an open, understanding, and professional approach to addressing issues around singlehood, dating, and relationship stress. My experience in sex therapy allows me to provide a safe space for exploring different relationship styles, and effectively addressing the unique sexual concerns and needs of individuals across all sexualities and genders. Whether it’s navigating the complexities of modern dating, managing stress in relationships, or understanding diverse relationship dynamics, my approach is inclusive, empathetic, and tailored to your personal journey. We'll work together to foster healthy, fulfilling sexual and emotional connections.
