Someone to Talk You Through It All
COLUMBUS & STARKVILLE, MS
Monarch Counseling & Wellness first opened its doors in the GTR about 3 1/2 years ago. They offer all sorts of counseling services, with a special focus on trauma counseling, for folks who need some help with from PTSD, dealing with grief/loss, depression, eating disorders, substance abuse, and more. They are a valuable asset to our area first responders and soldiers, as a result. Several of their clinicians also hold EMDR certifications, which has given them training in an approach to trauma that does not require their patients to go too in depth about their experiences and feelings; this can be helpful for people who have a difficult time expressing these issues directly.
Co-owners Janae Robinson and Amanda Coleman head a team of thirteen clinicians (and their therapy dog-in-training, Milo). The owners have extensive experience in the field, both having worked in private practice, ant at Baptist before that. They mostly see individuals, though they can also help couples and even family groups. Many of their therapists can take patients as young as twelve years old, while one will help children as young as five.
Most of their services are partially or fully covered by major insurance plans, including but not limited to BC/BS, Medicare/-aid, Aetna, and more.
They also help patients diagnosed with specific disorders to get the ESA letters needed to qualify for an Emotional Support Animal.
Please note that they do not accept walk-ins, and hours are by appointment only. This is for both the safety and the privacy of their clients.
