About me
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a PhD in Human Services with a specialization in counseling. My therapeutic style includes the concept that the counselor/client relationship is, in itself, a clinical helping strategy. My clinical style also includes narratives, vignettes, or brief stories designed to help illustrate or illuminate client circumstances in a non-threatening manner. This technique encourages clients to derive parallels to their own circumstances.
I work with individuals and couples. Historically, most of my clientele have been adults/couples, followed by adolescents, and then older children. I currently work with adults only. Clinical issues include adjusting to major life events, and changes such as various forms of loss, divorce, empty nest issues, and intimacy problems.
I work with people experiencing depression, anxiety, attention deficit disorder, obsessive compulsive disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, work related stress problems, adjustment issues, and faith or spiritual issues. However, I am not a Chrisian based, or Faith based therapist.
I have a rather eclectic approach to counseling in that I borrow from several theories of human behavior and development. However, I gravitate to the existential transpersonal model in that I'm interested in what the person is experiencing today while considering the concept that people are spiritual beings embodied. I incorporate the cognitive behavioral model and at times utilize a more psychoanalytic model exploring the person's childhood experiences within a developmental context. My personal/clinical philosophy is that my clients have the answers they seek before treatment begins. Through therapy the answers become more clearly visible.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Anthony Montez. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
He is cool and he listens
Dr Montez is as real as they come. He listens to us and puts things in perspective for us to understand. Tells it like it is, of course in a professional way. We definitely enjoy our sessions.
I absolutely admire his view and advice. He continues to help me be better and grow towards the person I’d like to be.
What an amazing therapist. He listened. He identified the critical issues with ease. He gave specific, helpful advice. And he was always honest with us about our situation. He definitely helped us save our marriage.
Very happy with the therapy appointment.
Dr. Montez is an amazing therapist who is down to earth, very relatable, and seems to have the experience and knowledge that we needed. He has a very good balance of listening to us explain our issues but also talking with us with his advice. He is a all around very good therapist and we highly recommend his services.
I accidentally clicked strongly disagree on an answer but it should’ve been strongly agree. His communication is great and very fast. I feel like we finally found a counselor that is getting to the root of the issue and genuinely helping.
Dr Montez can directly relate his experience to my situation and provide relevant knowledge and advice from an empathetic perspective.
He is warm and friendly and I would recommend him to anyone with anxiety, that is looking for professional support.
Starting therapy can be difficult, Dr. Montez made us feel comfortable and gave us several perspectives and tools to help improve our communication and intimacy. His wisdom and experience continue to help us in more ways than one.
Thank you Dr. Montez
