LCSW, 10 years of experience
Our current political and economic climates give many causes for concern. It can affect daily life, such as work, home, school, and social circles, essentially taking the fun out of what was once pleasurable. The same things that DO seem to help can eventually cause more pain. Who can you talk to when no one is listening? It would be helpful to have someone to talk to who can be objective, non-judgmental, and open-minded...but who could that be? Hello, I'm Montavious. What sets me apart is an ear for listening, a guiding approach, and an interest in helping you to overcome these obstacles. Join me by scheduling an appointment for a fitting. No one cares what you know unless they KNOW that you care! Contact me now to find out how!
Working with me, you can expect to be in the driver's seat and receive the support necessary to identify, prioritize, and resolve concerns. The ultimate goal is to experience a better work, home, and family life. You can also expect to be guided through the recovery process through support, knowledge, and encouragement.
My greatest strength is a multi-faceted, strengths-based, versatile treatment approach, that focuses on individual and cultural needs. In addition, together, we examine the triggering messages that negatively affect self-awareness and positive self-identification. For youths, I use the strength of gaming and education to highlight the importance of purpose and self-determination while learning how their world is experienced.
I'm best positioned to serve those who find it difficult to identify life's problems but know that "something just doesn't feel right." It takes a certain person to encourage the motivation to address the impact that emotional and psychological issues can have on work, home, family, daily life, and interpersonal relationships.
My experience with treating symptoms such as depression, anxiety, and mixed moods includes the use of active listening, reflective statements, resolving ambivalence, and rolling with resistance with a strengths-based approach.

Challenging so that you can become the best version of yourself. Really enjoy my sessions with him and he allows you to be yourself. I have been with other therapists in the past, but he has exhibited qualities that make you say "Wish I had him first, because I would have never left therapy."

He listens and that’s very rare to find a person who listens.
