Hollywood therapist Dr. Nicki J. Monti (seen on Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Millionaire Matchmaker and more) never thought she was worthy of love. Her rollercoaster life through childhood trauma, addiction, violence, divorce, and widowhood, challenged her ability to believe she was worthwhile and good-enough to be truly loved. Finally, after learning to love herself, she found her happily, ever after.

“We can\'t change history, but we can change our relationship to history. All healing involves a change of perspective. I’ve done that. Now the story I tell is through my true, confident, authentic voice. Amazingly enough, it turns out it’s never too late to be all in for love. When we have a willingness to honestly reveal ourselves – to reclaim the vulnerable, precious version of self that got left behind amidst the chaos of surviving, life promises to take us in surprising directions. Living a vulnerable, emotionally honest life is a far more stunning, exhilarating, validating, experience than I ever expected.”

Dr. Nicki J. Monti is a private practice psychotherapist and world-renown teacher, group leader, speaker, television and radio personality, and author of several books, including Stuck In the Story No More: Breaking down the Defenses that Define You and Bind You and Our Love Matters: Find It, Fix it, or Let it Go. She has long been internationally recognized both privately and on reality TV as therapist to the stars. Dr. Nicki’s main interest is identifying and learning how to dance with the patterns that guide our lives. She’s known as a straight-shooting teacher who truly believes that change is a matter of choice. Her soon-to-be-released book, The Divine Traumedy of Nicki Joy: A True Grime Tale, is described as a gritty, witty, provocative, dark, sex-drugs-rock-the-boat cautionary tale about how it’s never too late to learn how to love and live.
