I am Joyce Bengal. Monarca Counseling is my multicultural practice open to adults. If you are ready to let go of the drug or feeling that has a hold on you, and create a life, I am here as your Change Agent. As a therapist with over 30 years of experience working through agencies, shelters, juvenile facilities, and prisons, I continue to address anxiety and depression, trauma, gender id and racism. Using: CBT, behavioral and psychodynamic, motivational interviewing and expressive therapies. And bring teaching experience at Tuskegee Institute, Miles College and Tufts Experimental College to my practice.
I can help by being present in the course of our work together: individual, couple, in a group. My role is to teach you the tools of change I learned at Harvard and ongoing education in both mental health and substance abuse, and the Street. We will proceed at a pace that feels right for you.
If you have never had counseling before, I get it. I keep it simple. Guaranteed we speak the same language. One client says "Joyce goes out of her way to help her clients. Joyce goes above and beyond any other. I recommend her to anyone who needs therapy." (A.C). From (E.A.), "Joyce has helped me find my inner strength to take care of myself."

In our initial sessions, in which I gather information about what brings you to treatment, I learn about what your issues are, prior treatment for, what worked and what didn't. And learn why you are seeking treatment at this point, whether you have been directed to treatment, or are doing of your own. Based on information provided and what I have gathered listening to you, we choose an approach.
