Monique Johnson, Ed.S., LPC-S, RPT-S, CCBT, TF-CBT
Monique founded Restorative Counseling Services in 2014. The name came from the purpose placed on her life, and she is a firm believer that, with the right tools, everyone has the ability to be restored.
She has dedicated her life to restoring individuals and families through therapy, teaching, and writing, including several curricula, children's books, and devotionals.
Healing and growth is a process. She believes that with the right therapist, you can become the version of yourself you never thought was possible.
"I don't believe people should be defined by their choices. What they do next is what really shows them who they are."— Monique Johnson

Ms. Johnson not only helped us better understand our daughter, she helped us understand ourselves, to be okay with not having all the answers as parents, and to give ourselves grace. Our entire family was seen at RCS, and we have been forever changed."Parent of a client
