Professional statement

Karl Monger is a licensed therapist in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. He specializes in veteran issues, self-esteem, and improved personal and professional performance.

Karl's practice, OnAzimuth Coaching was created from years of experience as a US Army Infantry officer and Ranger. He has helped thousands of military veterans transition to lives of hope and purpose after the military. His approach aims at understanding a client's internal self-talk and applies cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, and existential theories with eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy to create a path for the client to achieve their objectives.

Karl served for ten years as an Infantry Officer, culminating in serving as the assistant operations officer for the famed 1st Ranger Battalion. Following the military, he held leadership positions in construction equipment sales and management. After the terror attacks of 9/11 he turned his efforts to helping military veterans, ultimately creating the nonprofit GallantFew in 2010.


Message to clients

After years of coaching veterans through a nonprofit, at an age when many people plan for retirement, I returned to school to become a licensed therapist. I bring a lifetime of practical experience that may help guide you on your journey. I am supervised by Dr. Summer Allen, LPC S.

The late baseball philosopher Yogi Berra used to say something like "if you don't know where you are going, you'll probably wind up someplace else". If you want to clarify your objective in life, or if you want to get back on the path to achieving that objective, it would be my honor to be your partner along that journey. I specialize in clients who have experienced trauma, depression, symptoms of post-traumatic stress, veterans who are reintegrating into civilian life, and people who are in the midst of a life or career change.

Our self-talk creates internal images that in turn create emotion that leads to behavior. I will help you identify negative self-talk and turn it into a positive, empowering form. This approach is based on cognitive behavioral theory. You will learn to create the space to select a response to a situation that will work for you, instead of against you. Please reach out to me for a free consultation.
