Montez Counseling, PLLC
April Montez, MSW, LICSW
We all have difficult experiences during our lives. These can include loss, grief, change, death of a loved one, illness, and many others that disrupt our lives and sense of self. During these challenging times it is important to feel heard and seen. I am here to listen and to help my clients find and nurture their own strengths to manage through and grow from difficult experiences. Change can be sad, scary, and exciting, but it is my goal to help my clients work through all of these feelings.
I specialize in working with adults and teens who have experienced trauma in their lives. Trauma comes in many forms: Domestic violence (physical and/or emotional), racism, childhood sexual trauma, witnessing a loved one struggle with addiction, being rejected by loved ones, experiencing loss, and many others. I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), which is used to help individuals address and heal the emotional distress that results from traumatic life events. In addition to EMDR, I also incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy into my practice. In my experience, many people who have lived through such difficult experiences do not always identify them as traumatic, but they are living with the consequences of these experiences. I work with my clients to create a plan to address their goals together through the therapeutic process. Through the use of therapy and the therapeutic relationship, it is my goal to help my clients to heal and have happier, more content lives.
