What's My Approach to Therapy?

Donald “Keith” Montgomery, LCSW, LCDC, MAC is a psychotherapist specializing in counseling and therapy for adult individuals and maintains a private practice in Austin, TX. I am a 2014 Master of Science in Social Work (MSSW) graduate of The Steve Hicks School of Social Work at The University of Texas at Austin. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor in Texas and certified as a Master Addiction Counselor by the National Certification Commission for Addiction Professionals. I am a fellow traveler living the life experience. I have lost my way many times. I continue to discover new and creative ways to be myself and show up in life. I am committed to willingness, awareness, and the non-judgmental observation of living on a daily basis. Together we form a collaboration of body, mind, and spirit in a trusting relationship to explore your truth, your strengths, and your unique life perspective. With conversation, reflection, consideration and the intention to challenge preconceived ideas, perspectives and actions you can try a different response for yourself or choose a new path forward. The life experiment continues to unfold in every moment.

My Practice & Services

Specific Issue(s) I'm Skilled at Helping With

I am a person in long-recovery from alcohol and drug disorders and a person with clinical depression managed with medication, lifestyle, and self-care. With rigorous honesty, willingness, curiosity, and non-judgmental awareness I really believe anyone can craft a life of meaning, purpose and serenity.
