Moni El Ramlawy Email & Phone Number

I collaborate with individuals and couples, guiding them to explore beyond the surface and uncover the underlying causes of their distress. My expertise is dedicated to aiding those who find themselves trapped in life’s challenges, grappling with issues like trauma, anxiety, depression, or relational complexities. With over a decade of private practice experience with individuals and couples, combined with seven years as a School Counselor focusing on families and adolescents, my background is both comprehensive and diverse.I am trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for Couples & Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT), incorporating humanistic and attachment theories. EFT and EFIT assist individuals and couples in navigating challenges such as depression, grief, chronic illness, and past traumas. The EFT/EFIT approach, infused with attachment theory and neuroscience, equips clients to understand and manage negative emotions and triggers effectively.In the realm of couples therapy, my objective is to create a supportive environment where the couple can openly delve into the core of their relationship dynamics. I aim to guide them in exploring the intricate cycle of personal challenges that hinder growth, as well as the automatic reactions that contribute to the emotional distance between them. By fostering a space for vulnerability, I assist them in uncovering and effectively expressing their complex emotions and needs.Many individuals find themselves entrapped in patterns of concealing emotions, avoiding them, and experiencing heightened reactions. These strategies, initially adopted to regulate emotions in unsafe environments, end up becoming prisons that uphold distress. In Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT), individuals can find their emotional balance, break free from these cycles, and be guided through their most vulnerable moments. In individual therapy, I work with clients to help them in identifying the issue and supporting them in attaining sufficient emotional balance to manage emotions like shame, reactive anger, sadness, grief, and fear.My expertise extends beyond EFT – I am also a Positive Discipline Parent Educator. Specializing in supporting parents of school-aged children, I aid them in navigating their children’s intense emotions. I offer guidance in establishing clear expectations, implementing effective discipline strategies, and delivering appropriate consequences for misbehavior. Through my work, I instill values of responsibility, respect, and emotional resilience in both parents and children.
