Hello! My name is Lynnette Montañez and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 7 years of experience working as a therapist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, trauma and sexual abuse, substance abuse, parenting problems, ADHD, and Bipolar Disorder, with a special focus in adoption and foster care issues. I am originally from Illinois and relocated to Florida in 2010. I received my undergraduate degree in Social Work from Florida International University and my Master's Degree in Social Work from Barry University. My approach to therapy is interactive and client centered. Building rapport with my clients and gaining a clear understanding of their needs is of utmost importance for me. Using a strengths-based approach, I guide clients in identifying their strengths and work together to develop a treatment plan that will reinforce positive thinking and accomplish their goals. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I assist my clients in learning the connection between their thoughts, feelings and behaviors and reinforce reframing negative or dysfunctional thinking/beliefs towards a more constructive reasoning. Using Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I support clients through developing skills such as mindfulness, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and emotion regulation with the goal of guiding clients towards a more fulfilled life in which they are active and present participants. Outside of my work as a therapist, I also work in private adoptions. I love to read books, cook, play with my dog, and exercise during my free time.

Hello, Welcome to Better Help counseling! I know you might feel nervous, but I want to Congratulate You for taking the first step towards your healing journey. Mental Health is a vital part of who we are and how we function in this unpredictable adventure we call life. I have over 10 years experience working with clients who are seeking help with depression, anxiety, grief/loss, family conflict, relationship/marital issues, self worth, mood disorders, stress, abuse/neglect, paranoia, panic, parenting guidance, trauma and spiritual growth. I have also worked with adults who have special needs, including autism and intellectual disability. I believe in order to live a healthy life, we need to focus on all three elements: our physical, mental and spiritual health. Just like a rope needs all three strands to be strong, we need all three of these elements healthy to weather anything. I would describe my approach as empathetic, goal oriented, and client centered. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Emotional Focused Therapy, Person Centered Therapy, Mindfulness and Motivational Interviewing to help my clients set goals and objectives as they work through their struggles. I provide a warm and non-judgmental environment so we can work together to reach your goals. I enjoy working with people helping them find their inner strength as they seek solutions and build their tool box full of coping strategies to manage life. We all need a tool box of strategies to help us navigate the struggles life brings. I believe wholeheartedly that everyone has their own strengths and gifts, we only need to open our minds and take the time to discover them. Let me help you on this journey to self discovery and self empowerment so you can reach a state of healing and peace. A little about me. I graduated in 2002 with my Masters in Social Work from University of Chapel Hill in North Carolina, "Go Tar Heels"!! I really loved living there with the beautiful seasons. I grew up in Miami, FL and currently live in a small town called Lake Wales, FL. Although, I miss the seasons, I am a Floridian at heart with the beaches, palm trees, southern live oaks and the luxury to access both gorgeous sunrises and sunsets!! Everyone deserves to have someone they can share their thoughts and feelings, so let me be that person for you. I look forward to working with you on your healing journey. Sincerely, Michele Lescard, LCSW
