Dr. Montgomery Prescod

Dr. Montgomery Prescod works with adults who are stressed, anxious, or facing big life changes. He helps people who are dealing with depression, relationship strain, trauma, addiction, or career pressure. He uses straightforward, practical conversations to help people notice what isn’t working and try new ways of coping.

He favors approaches that focus on thoughts, behavior, and values. That means identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing small changes that fit daily life. Mindfulness exercises and skills for managing emotions are part of the sessions when they match a person’s goals.

Prescod holds a Licensed Professional Counselor credential, LPC, and has eight years of clinical experience in counseling. His background includes work with mood disorders, ADHD, grief, and issues that overlap across diagnoses. He also brings awareness of multicultural and veteran-related concerns to his work.

Sessions are meant to be collaborative. The therapist listens for what matters most to each person and helps set clear, achievable goals. Practical tools and short skills practices are used between meetings to build progress over time.

People who prefer plain language and action-focused therapy may find this approach helpful. Prospective clients are asked to use the site’s Start Therapy flow to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It can be useful for stress, career decisions, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, with clear tools and exercises that people can practice between sessions. That approach is often used for anxiety, depression, and impulsivity. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce emotional reactivity and improve focus, which can support coping with trauma, grief, and burnout.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to a person’s goals and preferences and recommend a mix of methods that fit those needs. Clients and therapist decide together what to try and adjust the plan based on what helps.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins during a work break. They also let people work on skills and homework between meetings without rearranging daily routines. Ask about session options when you start the matching process so you can pick what fits your schedule and needs.
