About Monique Franklin

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Indiana, Arizona, New Jersey and Illinois I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My professional journey has been dedicated to helping clients address challenging life experiences, including depression, relationship dynamics, family conflicts, and personal healing from trauma.

My approach centers on empowerment, self-discovery, and compassionate guidance. I understand that each person’s path is unique, and I’m committed to creating a supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences, build resilience, and cultivate meaningful personal growth.

With expertise in addressing self-esteem challenges, communication barriers, and emotional healing, I work collaboratively to help individuals develop stronger self-understanding and more fulfilling relationships. My practice focuses on supporting clients through guilt, shame, forgiveness, and the intricate dynamics of family and caregiver experiences.

As a therapist of color, I bring cultural sensitivity and a deep understanding of diverse lived experiences to our therapeutic work. My goal is to provide a safe, affirming space where you can explore your challenges and strengths with genuine support and respect.

“Monique is really personable. My husband and I always leave our sessions feeling lighter. She’s helped us communicate better and see each other in a different light.”

“Thank you’”

“Monique is amazing! She actually does her best to listen, understand, and create conversation that gets to the root of what we’re talking about and help work through it”

“To this day, I say that Monique is the best thing to have come out of my divorce. She had to learn real quick what was happening because I was in the thick of it when I first reached out. With Monique, I believe I have what many of my friends are jealous of - that perfect client to therapist relationship. <br /> <br /> I’m grateful that a platform like betterhelp drew in someone as incredible as Monique and I get to reap the benefits. I recommend betterhelp to my friends repeatedly due to massive help it’s had in my life and mental health.”
