My Treatment Philosophy
I believe that healing is a process of coming home to yourself. Many of the women I work with—especially mothers—share that somewhere along the way, they lost sight of who they were. My goal is to help you reconnect with that version of yourself: the one who feels grounded, confident, and whole.
Mental health is complex, and there is no one-size-fits-all solution. That’s why I approach every treatment plan as a partnership. You are the expert on your life, and I bring the clinical expertise. Together, we’ll explore holistic, patient-centered options that align with your values and help you move forward with clarity.
I believe in the power of people to change. We all face struggles—but those challenges don’t have to define us. In our work together, I’ll help you turn pain into insight and build the skills, self-awareness, and confidence you need to navigate life’s ups and downs with strength and self-trust.
​
This isn’t just about symptom management—it’s about helping you feel like yourself again.

My Treatment Modalities
I offer integrative psychiatric care that goes beyond prescriptions and symptoms. My goal is to help you build a sustainable path to wellness—physically, emotionally, and mentally.

Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation
Let’s start with your story—not just your symptoms.
My approach is never one-size-fits-all—this is a space where your story truly matters. During our first session, you’ll be welcomed with compassion, care, and curiosity—not judgment. You’ll have the opportunity to share your experiences in a safe, confidential environment.
​
Together, we’ll explore your symptoms, understand how they’re affecting your daily life, and review any previous mental health care you’ve received. You’ll also receive a thoughtful, accurate diagnosis to guide us toward the most effective path forward. My goal is to gain a deep understanding of who you are, so we can develop a personalized plan that feels supportive, collaborative, and aligned with your unique needs.
Medication Management
Your journey, your medications, your health, together
​
Navigating medications can feel overwhelming—but you don't have to do it alone. Our work together is grounded in open communication, personalized guidance, and a deep respect for your unique health journey. You'll have the space to ask questions, share concerns, and feel confident about the medications you're taking and why.
​
Medication management includes:
-
Understanding medications: We'll discuss what each medications is for, how it works, and any potential side effects to be aware of. ​
-
Simplifying your regimen: Together we'll create a schedule that fits your lifestyle and explore solutions to support medication consistency.
-
Addressing concerns: No question is too small. We'll work through any challenges or doubts so your treatments feels right for you.
-
Setting you up for success: You'll receive tools, reminders, and reminders, and support that make staying on track easier and more sustainable.
​
Your well-being is the priority. In a supportive and collaborative spaces, you'll feel heard, respected, and empowered—because managing medications should never feel like something you have to do alone.
Culturally Tailored Psychotherapy
Your story deserves to be heard—without needing to explain your culture.
​
-
You deserve a space where your full identity—your culture, story, and lived experience—is seen, respected, and never questioned. In this practice, culturally tailored care isn't an afterthought—it's foundational.
-
You won't have to explain your background or educate your provider. Together, we'll create a healing path that feels authentic, affirming, and aligned with who you are. Whether you're navigating racial trauma, identity shifts, or life transitions, you'll be met with understanding—not assumptions.
​
This is a place where diversity is welcomed and honored, and where your voice leads the way.
Talk Therapy
Talk Therapy for Lasting Change
Therapy is more than just a place to vent—it's a powerful tool for transformation. Our work together goes beyond symptom relief. Through a thoughtful, integrative approach, we explore the root causes of your struggles and build strategies that support sustainable emotional growth and healing.

-
Exploring Patterns: Together we identify recurring patterns in your thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and relationships. We’ll look at where these patterns come from and how they’ve shaped your life.
-
Building Insight: In a warm, collaborative space, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of yourself—your needs, motivations, and how your past may be influencing your present.
-
Creating Change: Therapy helps you develop new ways of coping, relating, and showing up for yourself. Over time, you’ll build resilience, self-compassion, and the emotional tools to navigate life’s challenges with confidence.

Therapy is a journey that takes time, courage, and commitment—but you don’t have to take it alone. If you’re ready to work toward meaningful change and a more fulfilling life, I’m here to support you every step of the way.​​​​​​
Lifestyle Psychiatry & Wellness Coaching
Mental health isn’t just in your head—it’s in your habits.​
​
True well-being starts with your daily rhythm. In my practice, I look at how sleep, nutrition, movement, and stress shape your mental health and nervous system. Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, we work together to create small, realistic changes that build emotional resilience, clarity, and energy—one habit at a time.
Whether you're struggling with burnout, mood swings, poor sleep, or stress overload, this is a supportive space to reset and reconnect with your body and mind. You’ll gain the tools to restore balance and thrive—not just survive.
​
You don’t have to overhaul your life—just take the next step. Let’s build a path forward together.​
​​​Mindfulness & Nervous System Regulation
When you calm your nervous system, everything changes.
​
If you’ve been feeling anxious, on edge, or disconnected from your body, you’re not alone. Mindfulness and nervous system regulation offer a gentle path back to calm, clarity, and connection. Through practices like mindful breathing, grounding, and body scans, you'll learn how to ease overwhelm, manage anxiety, and feel more centered in the present moment.
​​
These techniques aren’t about perfection—they’re about tuning in, slowing down, and creating space for healing. Over time, you’ll build resilience, improve emotional regulation, and support your mental and physical well-being from the inside out.
​
Take the first step toward feeling more balanced and in control—your nervous system will thank you.
​​​​​​​​​​​​​
Supplement & Nutrition Support
Nourish your mind, fuel your mood, and reclaim your energy.
​
If you’ve been feeling foggy, tired, or like your mood is constantly shifting, you’re not alone—and it doesn’t have to stay that way. Through personalized supplement and nutrition support, we’ll uncover how food and targeted nutrients can support your mental clarity, mood, focus, and energy levels.
This service blends the latest scientific research with a personalized approach tailored to your unique needs. Together, we’ll cut through the overwhelm and create a simple, sustainable plan that helps your body and mind feel more balanced, nourished, and resilient each day.
​
Because thriving isn't just about what you do—it's also about how you fuel your body to feel your best.
Genetic Testing (Pharmacogenomics)
Your body isn’t guessing—so your treatment shouldn’t be either.
Struggling to find the right psychiatric medication can feel frustrating and exhausting. Everyone responds differently to medications, and your unique genetic makeup plays a big role in how your body processes them. That’s where optional genetic testing comes in.
​
Pharmacogenomic testing analyzes specific genes to help predict how your body may respond to certain psychiatric medications. This information can guide more informed choices about medication type and dosage—helping reduce trial-and-error, improve outcomes, and avoid side effects.
​
This testing can help you:
-
Find the right medication more quickly
-
Understand how your body metabolizes different drugs
-
Reduce potential side effects
-
Feel more confident and empowered in your care
If you’re ready for a more personalized and precise approach to medication, we’re here to explore if pharmacogenomics is right for you.
​
Collaborative Care
Better care happens when your team works together.
​
Mental health doesn’t exist in a vacuum—and neither should your treatment. Collaborative care means working closely with your other providers to create a seamless, well-rounded plan that supports your whole well-being.
Through coordinated communication, we can:
-
Align mental health care with your primary or specialty care
-
Share important health insights to avoid treatment gaps
-
Make medication and therapy decisions that consider the full picture
-
Support you with a team-based approach to healing
​
You don’t have to manage it all alone—we’re here to collaborate and care together.
Appointments & Rates – An Investment in Your Well-Being
Your mental health deserves to be a priority.
When you choose personalized, integrative care, you’re not simply scheduling an appointment—you’re making an investment in a stronger, healthier, and more aligned version of yourself.
Unlike rushed, insurance-driven visits, my virtual sessions are intentionally longer and more in-depth, giving you the time, space, and attention you truly deserve.
I offer flexible appointment types designed to meet you where you are in your healing journey:
Vanessa S.
Late-diagnosed neurodivergent mom
"For someone who’s been in and out of therapy and medication for most of my adult life, I’ve often felt let down by the mental health system. So many providers lack bedside manner—and that can actually make things worse, even triggering a relapse or making you want to avoid care altogether.
But my experience with Claudenie Mondesir was the complete opposite. She made me feel safe, heard, and genuinely understood. I wish more mental health professionals took the time to ask the right questions, truly listen, and lead with compassion the way she does.
As patients, we often already feel broken—like our brains don’t work like everyone else’s. Claudenie and her team saw me, supported me, and reminded me I wasn’t alone. I’m so grateful.”

J.E.
Nurse Practitioner
“My provider is very personable, great listener, and empathetic to the concerns of her patients. She treats others as they want to be treated. Claudine cares and makes her patients feel comfortable and ensure them that they are in safe hands. She extends her hours as needed to accommodate their needs. She also provides quality care not only to her patients, but also to her peers. Claudine has effective communication skills, where she always follows up with reports via phone calls, emails, or in-person. I would strongly recommend Claudine to anyone because she goes above and beyond for all her patients.”
Cierra Burnes
I love this team. They are awesome, and every time I meet with the doctor, she is so pleasant. She makes sure she follows up with me, and she is not all about giving out medication. She listens to what you have to say and considers how you are feeling.
