Meet Dr. Band

Dr. Monica P. Band is an award winning, trauma-informed licensed mental health therapist and advocate for mental health justice.

Dr. Band is widely recognized for her expertise in providing education and training on culturally competent and responsive mental health care, focusing on understanding the perspectives and needs of providers and the general public. Her guiding approach is to destigmatize, demystify, and democratize mental health information.

She excels in forming impactful partnerships with value-driven organizations that align with her mission of ensuring mental health education and services are accessible to underrepresented, underserved, and culturally minoritized communities.

Leveraging her extensive background in therapy and education, Dr. Band collaborates with organizations to shape their strategies, events, curricula, products, and content, championing inclusivity and leading with empathy.

“Diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEIB) in mental health care requires intentional and systemic engagement in challenging inequities that disproportionately impact communities in need.

This is a movement towards advocating and educating on sustainable practices of healing such as culturally responsive and trauma-informed care.” - Dr. Monica Band
