Monique Rahman-The Counseling Compass, PLLC

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and Registered Play Therapist™ passionate about walking alongside individuals, couples, and families as they navigate life’s challenges. With a PhD in Counselor Education and years of experience in both clinical and educational settings, I bring a blend of expertise, empathy, and genuine care to my work. I specialize in helping clients manage anxiety, perfectionism, life transitions, and self-worth concerns. I’m especially attuned to the needs of helping professionals, parents, and graduate students juggling many roles. But really, if you're someone that just knows you can live more wholeheartedly than you currently are, you're in the right place. My approach integrates creativity, trauma-informed practices, and client empowerment to support lasting change. When we work together, my goal is to provide a space that feels safe, validating, and full of curiosity—a place where growth feels possible, even when things feel hard.
