About your therapist, Hello, my name is Monique Darnell. I am a multi-state Licensed Professional Counselor. I am a therapist that leads and shows compassion. I believe in changing lives, and I believe in what I do. Though days can be rough, I find comfort in the things that bring me joy, reading, resting, and watching a good show. I am a parent, an author and a arts and craft woman. I understand what it is like to work through things and how it feels to be human. When it comes to my therapy approach, I like to think of it as holistic. This kind of therapy integrates spiritual, physical, mental, and emotional forms of well-being. I

Book now on my website or at headway.co/providers/allison-stallworth (if using insurance) / People think you've got it together, but in reality you're exhausted from years of trying to be perfect, putting others first, and fighting with your body. The hustle isn't sustainable anymore, and you feel ashamed and alone, elbow deep in a bag of chips. Who would understand how you feel? Your life seems fine. You've accomplished more than many, and you know you're a great friend (who else will answer the phone at 2am?). But none of that changes the sickening feeling that, at the end of the day, you're just not good enough.

Whether by choice or circumstance, we sometimes find ourselves in continuous cycles. Either way this can be tough. One important factor is not holding on to blame, shame, anger, guilt and unforgiveness. These emotions influence our thoughts, behaviors, and actions. Consequences of unwanted repetitive patterns are typically unfavorable. A second important factor is recognizing your power to overcome obstacles. Sometimes life's challenges help uncover how much we can handle. A third important factor is knowing you're not alone. I will help you along your journey as you develop skills to identify, manage, heal and grow.

Are you frustrated by your child's behavior? Children communicate through behavior. Exploring the meaning of challenging behaviors can help identify obstacles that may be preventing a child from expressing and managing strong feelings, from developing meaningful/effective relationships, and from coping with stress. The clients I typically see are resilient and want things to improve. This can mean different things I am here to help you determine how best to make this happen. I see working with the family, as well as the child, as critically important.

Feminist Therapists

How does feminist therapy work?

Feminist therapy sessions are not only personal but often cultural or political in nature, as the approach is based on the belief that people are affected by, and often struggle with, cultural and societal norms and biases, and need to move beyond those external pressures or stressors to tap their own confidence and engage more fully in their own identity. Sessions may therefore include discussions of sexism, diversity, and gender issues and talk of steps toward greater empowerment for patients who believe they have been silenced and seek to raise their voices.

What are examples of feminist therapy techniques?

Along with traditional talk therapy and analysis, a feminist therapist may employ techniques such as role-playing and assertiveness training to help clients build their self-esteem so that they feel they can act freely, and not based on cultural expectations or gender roles dictated by others. A feminist therapist may also engage in bibliotherapy, offering suggested readings on gender identity or social power inequities as they work toward viewing mental-health concerns through a broad cultural lens before focusing on how they affect the individual. Somatic therapy techniques, with an emphasis on body awareness, self-compassion, and mindfulness practices are also often part of feminist therapist practice.

How long does feminist therapy last?

As with most forms of talk therapy, there is no set duration or end point for feminist therapy; people who believe that they are making progress typically continue until they feel they’ve addressed the issues that had been holding them back. It may take some time to become comfortable discussing personal issues, but once a client feels they can do so, they could expect therapy to last for a number of months, typically including at least 12 sessions.

Does feminist therapy work?

As a relatively recent therapeutic technique, there is not yet a body of evidence proving the efficacy of feminist therapy. However, the approach is based on proven core principles of talk therapy, with a particular emphasis on developing a therapeutic relationship based on equality and authentic connection between therapist and client and discovering and building on clients’ personal strengths to help them gain a greater sense of personal power and agency.
