What qualities do you want in a counselor? Most people want someone who is trustworthy, dependable, empathic, and with sound clinical skills. Those traits describe Cory Montfort perfectly. She offers insight, maturity, compassion, and understanding grounded in professionalism and integrity. Cory is a counseling professional with a breadth of experience and depth of discernment.
I have known Laurie both personally and professionally for over ten years. When I need a referral for a couple's therapist, I immediately think of her. She has extensive training specifically in the evidenced-based treatment practices for couples. In addition to her expertise, Laurie is a warm, engaging, and compassionate therapist.
We all know it's tough to motivate ourselves toward change. Luckily, Courtney's energy is contagious. Her motivation combined with her gentle warmth and courageous honesty makes her uniquely effective. I have had the pleasure of working with Courtney Strull in a clinical setting as a colleague. Courtney is an excellent therapist who is passionate about her job.

For anyone looking for help with an eating disorder, I highly recommend Courtney Strull as your therapist. Courtney worked with me in an in-patient eating disorder facility in Dallas. As a registered dietitian, I trust sending my patients to Courtney to get the best care. It is so crucial to have a therapist who knows what they are doing and has the training and experience in the eating disorder field. Her knowledge and compassion helped many of our shared patients. Courtney is highly skilled at her job as evidence by the way she connects to teenagers and adults with a level of respect and ease

Laurie Poole is a POWERHOUSE. She is insightful, knowledgeable, relatable, empathetic - pretty much anything you're looking for in a therapist. I would not hesitate referring her to family and friends! And, in addition, I also strongly recommend her as a presenter - she does excellent work in attachment theory and would be an amazing asset for any continuing education or workshop. My team was floored with how educational her presentation was, but we also had a blast. Can't really beat that. And bonus points - she has the most soothing voice I've ever heard. Her guided meditations will make you

My husband and I initially went into The Montfort Group for couples therapy. Not because we were considering divorce, not because we has major issues… simply seeking a third party to help us communicate better. We were able to step back and see the roles we had taken as husband and wife and what we did and did not like about them. To learn to express feelings more clearly and to communicate better. How to parent our kids better. How to be a better team. And it wasn’t long before I realized many of the pains on our marriage arose from my personal struggles due to my childhood. Before I knew

If you aren't first set entirely at ease by the decor and atmosphere of the office then just wait until you meet Cory. She is so kind and calming that you will just melt into the couch and want to tell her everything. And of course sweet Megan at the front desk will do all she can to make you feel comfortable while you are waiting.
Cory served our family well for over a year. We learned a lot and my husband still quotes her when we may fall back into old behaviors. Also, my teenage son and daughter were very comfortable talking with her.

I have been working with Cory for a couple years now and cannot believe that it has been that long. She is very approachable, insightful and honest! I feel like I am confiding in a friend during our visits, not just someone who is there to give professional advice but someone who really cares about the struggles or hardships that seem difficult to get through. I have found that the progress that I have made with Cory has indeed made me a happier, healthy person and am forever grateful to have found her.

Cory has what I call a therapeutic coaching style. She is no nonsense, practical and empathic. She is insightful and intuitive. She holds you accountable to the work needed to achieve your emotional or personal goals all the while being someone who is relatable and authentic. She is a rare find - I feel so fortunate to have found her!

My time with Cory has been beyond what I expected. She is personable, REAL, intuitive and knowledgeable. It feels like I'm having a conversation with a close friend that has the tools and education to help me work through my process. The amount of things I've learned about myself, living my truth and navigating my life as my best self has been a tremendous help. I feel so fortunate to have been able to work with her. Thanks, Cory!

Cory has been an amazing resource in rebuilding my life post divorce and helping me to navigate the grief of losing both parents in a very short time. I look forward to our visits because she helps me figure out what the next steps will be and always has great book suggestions to further what we discuss. I am a more confident and better mother, friend and partner because of how I have grown since seeing her.

This has been a long time coming ... I have waited way too long to write this review.
Cory has a great way of getting to the heart of the matter and addressing the issues in a calm reassuring professional manner. We all go through rough periods in our lives and Cory was there for me to help right my ship. I would highly recommend her to anyone that ask. So if you're looking for a no BS, cut to the heart of the matter all with a smile, several laughs, and possibly some healthy crying .. set an appointment with Cory.

Corey is one of the most real people I have ever met. She knows exactly how to get the best out of her clients and makes them feel empowered to make changes in their lives. She makes herself readily available to her clients and genuinely cares about their growth as people. She is never judgmental and is always sensitive to your feelings I would not be where I am, or who I am today without all her help.
