About Nancy

Nancy Montes is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in California with 22 years of professional experience. She brings a culturally sensitive approach to her work and has supported people from a range of socio-economic backgrounds, including Hispanic communities, across the lifespan - from young adults to older adults and caregivers.

Nancy works with a variety of concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, compassion fatigue, self-esteem struggles, and life transitions. She also addresses related areas like caregiver stress, family and communication problems, social isolation, body image and self-love issues, postpartum and trauma-related concerns, and phobias. Her clinical toolkit draws from client-centered principles, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally-focused strategies, Jungian ideas, and mindfulness practices to match the needs of each person.

She individualizes treatment plans and shapes conversations to reflect each client’s goals and preferences. Nancy emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in therapeutic work and aims to support and empower individuals as they take steps toward clearer coping, healthier relationships, and a more fulfilling life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Nancy Montes integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) in her online practice to meet a range of needs. Client-centered therapy emphasizes an empathic, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist follows the client’s lead and supports personal growth and self-understanding. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. EFT helps people explore and reorganize emotional responses to improve connection, resolve grief, and work through relationship or attachment-related struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Nancy collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. She adapts techniques as progress unfolds to create a personalized plan.

Online therapy with Nancy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules, mobility limitations, or geographic constraints. These options make it easier to access consistent support and fit therapy into everyday life while working with a licensed professional who can guide treatment and help track meaningful change.
