ABOUT MONICA HAMER

Monica is a Certified CranioSacral Therapist with over 20 years of extensive training through Upledger Institute International (UII). She also serves as a Certified Teaching Assistant with UII for a variety of CranioSacral classes around the country.

Monica integrates CranioSacral Therapy's low impact application with other modalities to treat a range of issues that traditional medicine has been unable to address. Most recently, she has founded Crisis Support Therapy Partners (CST Partners), a Texas 501c3 nonprofit organization that provides CranioSacral therapy and other alternative health therapies to communities affected by school shootings. CST Partners is currently providing service clinics in both Uvalde, Texas and Nashville, TN.

FOR MONICA, IT'S PERSONAL

One thing that sets Monica apart from other therapists is her emphasis on educating her clients on the impact that the mind-body connection has on their overall health. She believes in empowering her clients to look at health from a lifestyle perspective by incorporating a variety of tools that help each individual as opposed to a “magic pill.”  The personal time and attention Monica gives is the distinctive quality that creates a safe, therapeutic experience for each of her clients.

​

A native Texan and mom to three young adults, Monica and her husband currently live in Dallas. She is known by her friends, family and clients for her joyful spirit and caring personality.
