Lisa Montgomery, LPCC

Lisa Montgomery is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) based in Kentucky. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and issues tied to identity and addiction. Lisa also supports those coping with trauma, parenting challenges, body image concerns, and changes like divorce or relocation.

Her style is warm and practical. Sessions focus on what matters most to the person in front of her. She listens first, then helps set small, doable steps toward clearer thinking and better coping. Practical skills and emotional support are mixed into each session.

Lisa uses a blend of client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and mindfulness practices. That means the conversation centers on the client's goals while also teaching ways to notice thoughts, manage strong feelings, and reduce unhelpful behaviors. Motivational interviewing and emotionally-focused ideas are woven in when they fit the situation.

Across 16 years of practice she has worked with people dealing with addiction, eating concerns, abandonment issues, and caregiver stress. She pays attention to relationship patterns, communication problems, and intimacy-related worries, and she helps people recover from abuse and domestic violence.

People describe her approach as compassionate and goal-oriented. Lisa aims to help clients build resilience, improve communication, and strengthen self-esteem. For those seeking support around jealousy or trust issues, her focus on emotions and practical tools can be especially useful.

How her approaches fit online therapy

Lisa blends client-centered therapy with cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness in straightforward ways. Client-centered work means sessions focus on the person's goals and experience, creating space to talk through worries and identity questions. Cognitive behavioral therapy teaches skills to notice and change thought patterns that fuel anxiety or jealousy. Mindfulness therapy helps people practice paying attention to the present moment and to manage intense emotions without reacting.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. She will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust plans based on what helps the client feel safer and make steady progress. That partnership guides which methods are used week to week.

Confirm session formats before booking, since options are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets a therapist use worksheets, breathing exercises, and behavioral experiments between sessions so work continues outside appointment times.
