Meet Montoyia

I believe in living my life by two R’s: release and relief. So often we internalize our feelings and emotions and find relief through negative self-talk, over working, engaging in toxic relationships and overthinking. Which means we never truly deal with the stressor or trigger to release the emotion. Now ask yourself, how is this fair to your present and your future? As a child, internalizing my feelings and emotions was my solution to life, which accompanied me into my adulthood. The inability to release my feelings in a healthy manner encouraged my negative self-talk and self-doubts.

My work has deepened my understanding of developmental and situational challenges across ages, systems, and socioeconomic groups.
