Accepting NEW clients in FL & CA. Hi, I'm Dr. Kristen Montiel. Are you feeling stuck in the same cycle? Do you keep trying to find solutions but they don't seem to work? Do you crave change and a happier, healthier version of yourself? With over 15 years of experience, my focus is helping individuals and couples understand themselves and use their own strengths to discover healing, even in the most difficult circumstances. I provide a non-judgmental space where clients can feel comfortable to work through challenges, hurt and disconnect, while developing new perspectives, learning new skills, and creating sustainable change.
Specifically, I help couples recover from infidelity, reduce conflict, improve communication, reignite intimacy, and reconnect emotionally. I enjoy helping individual men and women overcome anxiety, depression, improve self-esteem, and break through old patterns to create lasting change. If you're ready for change, click on "My Website" to book now.
Searching for the right therapist can be a daunting process when you may already be struggling or stressed. I know it's not easy but I'm so glad you're here! After experiencing my own struggles with family and relationships, I set out to help others who also felt stuck. I’ve helped many others find hope and healing and I look forward to helping you too!
