Monica Edenholm, LAMFT, PA-C(She/Her/Hers)

Monica Edenholm is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in the intricate dynamics of couples and family systems. While she maintains a dedicated practice for individuals, Monica focuses on helping partners and families navigate the high-stakes transitions that define our lives. From deepening intimacy to the delicate process of divorce and the formation of blended families, Monica helps clients transform upheaval into opportunities for lasting connection.

Monica believes the health of the primary partnership serves as the foundation for the entire family's well-being. Using a Rogerian (Humanistic) framework, she provides unconditional positive regard and genuine empathy, ensuring all clients feel safely seen. Her work is particularly effective for couples "stuck" in repetitive conflict. She practices from an antiracist, body-positive, and LGBTQ+ affirming perspective, exploring how social justice and power dynamics impact the family unit.

Monica integrates evidence-based tools to move clients from reactivity to restoration:

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT): Identifying negative cycles to build secure emotional bonds and vulnerable attachment.

Blended Family & Divorce Support: Navigating the unique hurdles of co-parenting, boundary-setting, and healthy "conscious uncoupling."

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT): Providing concrete skills for emotional regulation and de-escalating arguments during high-stress transitions.

A graduate of Seattle University, Monica is a strengths-based therapist who believes every couple and family possesses an innate resilience. Whether you are seeking to repair a marriage, navigate a peaceful separation, or harmonize a blended family, Monica empowers you to find a renewed sense of hope and collective healing.
