About me

I am licensed in Kentucky with 25 years of work experience with adults, adolescents, and families. I have worked in psychiatric and substance abuse hospitals, with foster care children and families, in outpatient therapy private practices, domestic abuse shelters, and numerous other settings. I am experienced in work with clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, LGBT-related issues, trauma and abuse, anger management, and other areas of need. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

Lisa Montgomery is a brilliant therapist. She is kind, compassionate, a great listener, and very trustworthy. Lisa made me feel comfortable right from the start. She has helped me significantly and I would be lost without her. I look forward to my sessions with her. I HIGHLY recommend Lisa. Betterhelp is lucky to have her.

Lisa is the best. She is extremely caring and compassionate. My therapy experience with her has been better than previous instances because she is great at forming a relationship and making you feel comfortable to share. I would highly recommend Lisa.

Written on Jan 10, 2024 after therapy with Lisa for 9 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, self esteem, and coping with life changes

I have worked with Lisa for several months while I navigate a life crisis. She's been highly supportive and has guided me through a tough time of transitions. After meeting weekly for several months, I have moved to a maintenence plan now that I feel more grounded and stabilized. I recommend Lisa as a therapist to others.

Lisa is amazing to work with, she always checks in on me to make sure I’m doing OK and responds to my messages quickly. She makes me feel comfortable enough to tell her everything that’s going on feel like I can relate to her and I do not have to hide my true self.
