About Bridgette
Dr. Bridgette Montgomery helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, and depression. She introduces practical steps listeners can use right away.
The opening conversation often focuses on what feels most urgent and what the person wants to change. With thirty years of experience, she draws on different approaches to match a person’s needs. Dr.
Montgomery uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going.
Background and approach
Her work includes attention to trauma and post-traumatic stress. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is one of the tools she may bring in for trauma-related symptoms. Mindfulness techniques are used to build calm and improve moment-to-moment awareness.
Dr. Montgomery also supports people dealing with autism and Asperger syndrome, eating and food-related issues, gender dysphoria, obsessive-compulsive concerns, and process or sex-related addictions. She meets people where they are and helps them set clear, manageable goals.
She holds the LCSW credential, which stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker. She practices in Pennsylvania and uses a straightforward approach that mixes listening with practical strategies. If someone prefers steady, gradual change, she plans sessions with that pace in mind.
Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, respect, and working at your pace. It helps people who want a supportive space to talk through feelings and make decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and offers specific steps to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and obsessive-compulsive concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about symptoms, goals, and preferences and then recommend options. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into a busy life. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone calls can be better when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging suits brief check-ins or times when typing feels easier. These options help people maintain continuity of care and adjust how they meet based on their schedule and comfort.
