Emerald Counseling Services - The Face of Counseling

Katie Montgomery, LPC, NCC, MA, MSM

Katie Montgomery, licensed professional counselor and owner of Emerald Counseling Services, is known for her down-to-earth “therapy for real people” approach. She helps clients gain clarity and confidence to lead more fulfilling lives by working through life transitions, unresolved traumas, and everyday stressors.

Montgomery works with a variety of clients but has found her passion in supporting three specific groups:

• Men who want a safe space to open up. Many men feel pressure to “have it all together” and struggle to share what they’re really going through. Montgomery creates a judgment-free space where they can process emotions, improve communication, and build healthier relationships. 

• Women navigating life transitions. Whether it’s a career change, divorce, parenthood, or rediscovering identity during and after menopause, Montgomery helps women move through change with resilience and self-compassion.

• College students balancing it all. From academic pressures to relationship struggles and questions of identity, Montgomery supports students in managing stress, building coping skills, and finding their path forward.

Her approach is client-centered and tailored to each individual, using humanistic, trauma-informed care. Montgomery’s priority is to make clients feel truly seen and supported in a safe, warm, and welcoming environment.
