About

James Montgomery recognizes that change is one of the few constants in life. Whether it arrives as a career transition, a loss, a deployment, a return to school, or the decision to step outside a familiar comfort zone, these shifts can leave people feeling overwhelmed and uncertain. He provides steady support to help clients navigate those moments and work toward healing, growth, and clearer direction.

He develops individualized treatment plans that reflect each person’s circumstances and goals, drawing on ethical, evidence-based practices in mental health counseling. For clients needing trauma-focused care, he offers Accelerated Resolution Therapy, a targeted approach designed to resolve traumatic stress and promote recovery.

James practices in Utah and brings seven years of clinical experience to his work. He is a Utah Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (UT LCMHC), license number 11233930-6004. As an older, non-religious male therapist, he focuses on areas such as stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes.

Please note that most of his BetterHelp openings are on Fridays. If it feels like a good fit, James encourages scheduling an appointment to begin exploring a path forward together.
