Monique Beckford is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), Master’s-Level Certified Addiction Professional (MCAP), and doctoral candidate at Regent University with over 16 years of experience helping women heal emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. With a deep passion for integrating faith and mental health, Monique specializes in trauma-informed Christian coaching, supporting women who feel stuck, broken, or disconnected as they rediscover their identity, experience emotional renewal, and grow closer to God. She is the founder of Higher Elevation Coach, where her mission is to guide women into wholeness through a Christ-centered approach that blends clinical expertise, biblical truth, and compassionate care. Her heart is to see lives transformed through the power of faith—restoring hearts, renewing minds, and equipping women to walk confidently in their God-given purpose. Monique is also the proud founder of Praying Women Get Results (PWGR), a Christ-centered nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering women through prayer, community, and emotional healing. What began as her personal testimony of restoration has grown into a global movement offering retreats, outreach initiatives, and safe spaces where women heal from trauma, strengthen their faith, and step boldly into freedom. Through her professional training, lived experience, and unwavering faith, Monique bridges the gap between spiritual formation and mental health awareness—helping women experience true, lasting transformation from the inside out.
