About Monica Ferguson, MA, LMSW
Trauma-Informed Educator | Nervous System Guide | Somatic Learner
Hi, I’m Monica—someone who deeply values presence, dignity, and the quiet power of being seen and known.
I’m a Licensed Master Social Worker with a master’s degree in Social Work as well as Interpersonal Communication. I bring over a decade of experience working in relationship-centered spaces, and my approach is shaped by advanced training in Somatic Experiencing (Intermediate level), Internal Family Systems (IFS Level 1), and EMDR.
Be Seen and Known was born from my desire to share what I’m learning—with other professionals, seekers, and anyone trying to make sense of their body’s wisdom, their emotional patterns, and their healing process.
Whether you're walking your own path of recovery or you're a helping professional seeking to deepen your understanding of trauma-informed and somatic principles, you're welcome here.
This isn’t a space for therapy, diagnosis, or advice. It’s a space for education, reflection, and respectful inquiry—rooted in nervous system literacy, parts awareness, and relational safety.
