About Monique Botero
Monique Botero uses various modalities of Holistic Psychotherapy, where she works with patients who have experienced physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual situations. By educating her patients that diseases are how the body communicates when something is unbalanced. This helps the patient understand that these events occurring around them are attracted by themselves. This lesson is an opportunity to grow, learn and heal. She exposes why they keep attracting these situations and provides techniques to change the pattern and stop the cycle. The therapist is not the healer but only guides and teaches how to achieve healing by accompanying each person in their journey. The patient is the only one who can accomplish this. Healing comes naturally from within, and it is a personal decision.
The focus is on teaching the patient how to resolve their traumatic experiences. She takes the patient through a genealogy journey to raise consciousness and find the root cause of their repeating obstacles. Her unique skill is uncovering false misconceptions that keep every patient confused and stagnant. Various therapies and customized approaches allow the patient to embrace their true essence. These therapies prevent an atmosphere of codependence between the therapist and the patient. The ultimate goal is for the patient to achieve a life full of physical and emotional independence. The most fulfilling achievement in Monique's work is knowing that patients have freed themselves, healed, and evolved in all aspects of life.
My Story
Like a little seed, I bloomed out of an environment with beautiful surroundings, but it was all a façade. Born to South American parents on a beautiful island and having the privilege of studying in a private American school, this was just a disguise of what I was truly exposed to during my childhood. My parents never got along since they didn’t know each other before marriage. The reason is simple, both came from dysfunctional families and decided to escape their reality through an abrupt marriage. Due to their desperation to find happiness outside of their childhood homes. This decision led them to a marriage full of infidelities on my father's part. My mother was victimized, which led to bringing children into a loveless family and an evident divorce. Finances worsened since my parents’ obligations were not fulfilled. Due to my father’s irresponsibility and my mother’s lack of demand, I had to take control of the household income in my early teens. I had an almost no existent social life, no vacations, no parties, and yet I had to live up to the pressures of high society. Meanwhile, I felt sick, living with a birth defect and consuming my everyday life.
At 30, after visiting many doctors, they finally discovered that I had multiple organ displacements. This was why I had a series of medical complications and numerous surgeries throughout my early years. This robbed most of my youth and getting married and possibly having babies. While my friends were getting married and having children, I struggled to manage my business, health, and many inadequate fathers like figure boyfriends. Simultaneously craziness was going on; I realized I had a gift, Intuition. I was born with a highly intuitive gift that, until it was adequately channeled, caused more fear than joy.
After multiple surgeries, doctors finally corrected all the birth defects, but cell mutations took over. Cancer was the following diagnosis. At that moment, I decided to look for another route to change my health, present situation, love life, and fear of the intuitive realm. I then decided to try alternative medicine and a more holistic approach to healing myself. The miracle happened! I was cancer-free, and then my healing journey began. The happiness I encountered and all I learned helped me discover my true calling. To that end, I started my studies with the best practitioners and healers. I transformed my career from a businesswoman to a Holistic Psychotherapist.
My mission in life pivoted to learning, growing, and sharing that transformation with others. Finally, I understood that we all have the opportunity to change and evolve. I achieved my highest dream of meeting my soulmate. I finally met the man of my dreams who is not the reflection of the inadequacy of my father and with whom I don’t have to become a victim like my mother once was. Today it's been more than two decades of being cancer-free and twenty-five years as a Holistic Psychotherapist and Spiritual Teacher. Now I live in another beautiful place full of sunshine in the USA with my husband, two adorable dogs with excellent health, and an exceptional Holistic Practice.
I was born with the gift of intuition to find a person's life's hidden core issue and teach them how to transform it and be happy. We are all born with a gift. And a Gift has to be helpful and make us happy. But most of all, it has to be shared with the world. Once you share it with others, it becomes your life calling and purpose. But only after you Unveil your Authentic Essence all this can happen. My compromise is to teach and share how to live a happy and peaceful life for those who lack the tools due to their upbringing.
Understanding the importance of Science, Medicine, Alternative Healing, and Spirituality, I founded ADVANCED HOLISTICS, where all of them can perform together in a Holistic way. Teaching people that the roots and beginnings of different modalities have a scientific base helps them see everything and everybody around them with compassion. This brings understanding, happiness, peace, and acceptance to the world. Simply acknowledging that it is us humans, animals, plants, all the kingdoms, and the universe together, all in one and not separate, means love, and that's when you Unveil your Authentic Essence.
