TEMPE, AZ, August 06, 2024 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Monique M. Gomez, MSW, Trauma Coach, LMT, has been inducted into Marquis Who's Who. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.
Ms. Gomez, a distinguished trauma coach, licensed massage therapist and reiki master, has dedicated her career to helping individuals achieve emotional regulation and holistic well-being. With over 10 years of professional experience, she has leveraged her expertise at Dare to Heal LLC since 2017, where she meets with clients both in person and virtually. Her work focuses on assisting clients with emotional regulation, mindset change and overcoming old patterns, and she provides intuitive bodywork to massage therapy clients, ensuring comprehensive care.
All in all, Ms. Gomez's approach to trauma work is not traditional, as she does not focus on retelling the trauma but rather works with the thinking brain to draw on skills from the individual's history. She notes this approach as being particularly important when working with those who are recovering from difficult experiences and aiming to move forward. Prior to establishing Dare to Heal, Ms. Gomez worked as a clinical therapist at Southwest Network from 2018 to 2021.
Driven by her ambition to both establish her own private practice and create a comprehensive network of holistic providers, Ms. Gomez created Dare to Heal, through which she has contracted workers and affiliated partners as well as integrative programs with nutrition coaches and therapists who are taking several of her membership clients while building their own practice. Her journey into the field of social work began with obtaining a Master of Social Work from Arizona State University in 2017, which she cites as her most notable achievement as it marked the beginning of her own healing journey and professional growth. Before earning her master's degree, Ms. Gomez received a Bachelor of Arts in sociology from The University of Arizona in 2013.
Together, Ms. Gomez's educational accomplishments have been instrumental in her success, equipping her with the skills necessary for her roles as a trauma coach and clinical therapist. As a result of her degrees, she is recognized as a licensed Master Social Worker through the State of Arizona Board of Behavioral Health Examiners. Moreover, she is a licensed massage therapist through the Arizona State Board of Massage, a designation she earned in 2010.
Ms. Gomez's expertise spans client-centered understanding, energy work, bodywork, trauma coaching, holistic goal support and intuitive insights. She is a member of the School of Social Work Association of Arizona, the Health Organization Students of America and the American Massage Therapy Association. Alongside her work being featured in various articles and podcasts, Ms. Gomez was a guest on the Claim Your Worth podcast episode titled "Losing a Parent From Addiction & Claiming Your Own Path with Monique Gomez", which was released in 2023.
Beyond her professional work, Ms. Gomez is actively involved in civic-minded organizations. She is a donor to Child Crisis Arizona and the Social Behavior Sciences Program at The University of Arizona. Additionally, she has made significant contributions through her creative projects and publications and, in 2023, she hosted the Avoidance and Control Podcast and authored "Not The Chancla: How Awareness of Our History and Trauma Create Compassion to Rewrite Our Future", which was published in 2022.
Overall, Ms. Gomez attributes much of her success to her collaboration with others through feedback referrals and those familiar with her work. Such a collaborative spirit has been crucial in building her network of holistic providers and establishing Dare to Heal as a comprehensive resource for those seeking emotional and physical well-being. Looking forward, Ms. Gomez aims to transition her business to a more virtual and international model by offering virtual events and coaching across different time zones. Furthermore, she aspires to establish a wellness center in Phoenix that will provide services from multiple providers and host educational events.
