Before starting parts work, I felt a bit out of control. I did not feel strong enough to navigate my thoughts and emotions. I felt at will to them and weighed down by my past traumas. That ultimately created the feelings of out of control. I felt helpless to my own fears and anxiety. I had a few core struggles in my daily life. I had a lot of insecurities and insecure attachments to myself and others. I had a lot of general anxiety that felt like a constant battle I was losing. I had a lot of shame as I felt deeply "there is so much wrong with me that I cannot fix." I felt like my past defined who I am, and that I have already messed up too much to ever show myself love or be truly loved. My life since starting parts has been immensely different in various ways and aspects. My thoughts have begun to work with me and towards my greater good, instead of against me and my own progress. I have a lot more confidence in the way I handle myself and others around me. I have the ability to access self energy, which helps me to feel safe, grounded, and secure. I have more love and energy to focus back on my greater good, which has positively impacted the choices I make for myself. Some of the results I have received through coaching have a lot to do with the main goals of the practice and parts of self. The main goals from my personal take away, include empowering myself and parts in order to keep the entire system safe. The parts of self that have grown since starting this practice include my confidence, courageousness, ability to harness calmness, exercise creativity, gain and optimize clarity and curiosity. This has in turn, helped me to feel more secure and in control during my day to day life. I have a better ability to turn in, and assess my needs. As someone in my family working to break the cycle of trauma, Monica has provided a safe and supportive space to work through my past in appropriate and empowering measures. For those considering this work with Monica, the process is worth it. It can take time to adjust and may even be a little overwhelming at times. The reward is so insightful and empowering. I believe in this work and the fact that there is so much going on in each and every one of us, shaped by our past experiences and inherent good natures. This practice has helped me to grow and shape the parts of myself, while processing and accepting harder truths, to ultimately gain strength in overcoming what I thought was how things are or who I am. There is so much more to uncover and so much wisdom to gain during these sessions, and I couldnt have asked for a better guide/coach in this process. This practice is truly transformative.

The work I've done with Mónica over the past year has been life changing and I'm so glad I found her when I did! Before starting Parts Work I was struggling a lot and didnt realize just how much my childhood trauma was still affecting me. I really had little to no understanding of my internal world and couldn't make much sense of my emotions, which made life feel very confusing and overwhelming at times. But after this year of working with Mónica, everything just feels more manageable. I have the skills to actually feel my emotions without getting overwhelmed, and figure out what those emotions are trying to tell me which has been so helpful. And I have a much deeper relationship with myself that's significantly more positive and enjoyable than it ever has been before which has been so rewarding!

Monica is a kind, insightful and genuine soul, and anyone who works with her will feel this. As a fellow trauma survivor, choosing who you work with and what style of therapy you will embark on can be scary. With Monica, and her session styles, I was able to feel safe throughout this journey. My life before I embarked on this experience felt like something was missing. I was struggling with navigating my inner world. I have experienced an immense amount of trauma in my life, and I was deeply struggling with compassion for myself. Without that compassion for myself, I was not able to accept what was happening and instead, I was just looking for fix-it answers. My life after Ive experienced Goal Coaching and Parts Work has completely changed. I am aware of my internal self and I'm able to navigate myself and my outside world in a way that's comfortable. I feel safe within myself and open to vulnerability. I'm able to be more aware of my emotions and feel them as opposed to pushing them away or trying to find that fix-it answer to them. My work life has improved, as I've been able to recognize my own power and empower myself along the journey. I don't look for external validation or control anymore, and if that feeling does come up, I'm able to recognize that it's happening so I can move forward. I feel happy, full of compassion, and mindful of myself - which is a beautiful experience. As a result of this experience, I feel connected with myself, have clarity on the dark spots within my life, and I no longer live in fear, but rather embrace vulnerability. I would recommend Monica to anyone that is ready to relinquish themselves from the chains of our own trauma.

Working with Monica has been transformational and healing. I have made major positive improvements to my life and health since working with her. The way in which I talk to myself more positively, approach and overcome challenges with less stress, and reach my goals is so astonishing. I no longer freeze or easily get overwhelmed by problems as I used to. I have learned to manage my emotions, and to reorient my procrastination into a catalyst to reach my goals. I love that I can be bilingual in our sessions, which has been so powerful. She creates an encouraging and safe space to do a deep dive, reach the root cause, and do the emotional heavy lifting that I couldn't do on my own. My friends have noticed my transformation, and I always tell them that Monicas coaching has been a major contributor to this outcome.
