I am Prof. (Dr). Monique Marks - YOURHEALTHPROF!
Welcome to my practice. I am dual-qualified and registered as a social worker and a health coach. I also have a strong academic background and maintain a university affiliation. This means that I stay up to date with the latest knowledge and ensure that interventions are evidence-based.
My unique combination of training and experience means I will guide you on your journey to holistic wellbeing. I am guided by the biopsychosocial approach to wellbeing. Mind, body, and social context are all connected. In my practice, my clients are whole people. Your social context matters as much as your physical and mental state. Together, we will unpack how all aspects impact one another and find holistic, effective solutions.
I create a warm, non-judgmental environment where you will feel heard and empowered to make impactful changes in your life.
Together, we will embark on a transformative journey to a healthier, more energised, more connected, and more purposeful you.

What My Clients Say
Real feedback from people I've worked with.
"Professor Monique Marks is Absolutely wonderful and has been there for me on several occasions when I was very ill and is still there for me today. She checks in all the time. She is very down to earth and completely non judgmental. She is personally interested in her patients and really does want to see them improve and feel better about their current situation of mental health about what they are going through. She is really wonderful!"
​
- MC Seymour
"Professor Marks is a true beacon of progressive and compassionate health education. Her unwavering advocacy for harm reduction is not just a methodology, but a profound reflection of their respect and empathy for all people. In a world often focused on abstinence-only messaging, Professor Marks provides a vital, evidence based perpective that truly meets individuals where they are."
​
- Lerato Khubeka
"My sessions with Monique Michal Marks as I navigated some of the most tumultuous waters of my life were nothing short of life-changing, and today I know that the life I that I am cultivating around me is only through encounters with truth, love, and hope from her (lots of realisations of truth and accountability towards it!) and my support system of loved ones.
I cannot recommend Monique enough to those of you who are needing support, in any way be it for yourself or a loved one. Life is challenging enough without the need to carry the load alone."
​
- Adheema Davis
"I can only sing the highest praises for Monique and her world of knowledge. She approaches her therapy with deep empathy and an endearing need to really understand a person, and get to the very heart of any challenges they may be experiencing. I love her holistic approach to wellbeing, and willingness to try several different pathways to mental wellbeing, not just wanting to focus on western medicine as a first line solution.
I have loved our discussions and deeply value her tools and advice."
