  • Monica Molyneux - Psychologist Psychologist

    Hi, I’m Monica. I’m a warm, empathetic, and down-to-earth psychologist who believes in creating a safe, supportive space where you can feel truly heard and understood. For me, being a psychologist is about more than just offering support—it’s about building a genuine connection, holding space for you to be vulnerable and helping you find moments of lightness during difficult times.  I value your unique perspective and therefore take a collaborative approach, tailoring all psychological services to fit your unique needs, goals, and experiences.

    I have a special passion for helping people break free from unhelpful patterns and build a life that feels more fulfilling. I believe therapy is a space for growth, self-discovery, and learning how to live in a way that aligns with who you truly are. Whether you’re experiencing depression, anxiety, or other mental health conditions, challenging life adjustments, relationship struggles, or navigating life with a personality disorder, I’m here to support you with care and compassion. I always work from a trauma-informed perspective and use a range of evidence-based approaches.  I adore working with LGBTIQ+ and neurodiverse individuals. 

    No matter where you are in your journey, you don’t have to go through it alone. I would love to support you in becoming the best version of yourself.
