Welcome!

 I’m so glad you’re here! My name is Johanna Montenegro and my hope is that you find rest and wholeness here through your healing journey.

If you’re healing from a relationship that made you doubt yourself, you’re in the right place.

I'm Johanna Montenegro, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas. I work with women navigating the aftermath of a relationship with a narcissistic partner — whether you're still in it, in the middle of separating, or years into coparenting with someone who hasn't changed.

My approach combines EMDR, somatic therapy, and nervous system-informed care to help you process what happened, rebuild trust in yourself, and move forward — even if "moving forward" still means coparenting with the person who caused the harm.

I invite you into a space where you can begin exploring the inner workings of who you are as you step into processing your story. My role is to come alongside you as you navigate your experiences to resolve issues of deep wounding.

I look forward to walking alongside you in your healing journey.

 

Who I Work With

You might be here because:

  • You're trying to leave — or have left — a relationship with a narcissistic or emotionally abusive partner

  • You're coparenting with someone who uses manipulation, guilt, or the legal system to keep control

  • You're exhausted from being told "it wasn't that bad" and want a therapist who actually understands coercive control

  • You're untangling religious trauma tied to narcissism

  • You are trying to parent your children and process relationship trauma at the same time

  • You're not sure if what you experienced "counts," and you want space to figure that out without judgment

This work often overlaps with grief, identity rebuilding, co-parenting stress, and trauma responses that don't make sense to people who haven't lived it.

 

Thanks for visiting! My journey to providing whole-person wellness therapy has evolved over many years and I am so grateful for the opportunity to share these integrative modalities with you.

I hold a deep belief that most individuals, with the proper guidance, a safe place, and emotional space, have the ability to move past trauma, tap into their inner resources, and heal from within.

Through natural solutions and human connection, we can break through barriers that once held us back.

I look forward to connecting with you soon!
