I am currently accepting new clients for telehealth sessions. My name is Jacki Richardson and I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in the state of Montana.

My clinical focus is helping people adjust to life transitions, recover from trauma, overcome emotional distress, and learn new behaviors to cope. I am a Veteran, and have provided counseling services to military members and their families for 20 years. My education is based on an understanding of neuroscience and the human systems it supports such as language, attachment, cognition, and behavior. I am considerate of culture, identity, and intersectionality. I utilize Systemic, Cognitive, Behavioral, Attachment, Internal Family Systems, and Solution-Focused interventions to reach client goals.

A broken heart. It is what finally brings many people to counseling. If you have experienced a traumatic event, it is likely that most of your relationships have been affected. Some may be estranged or have ended. The pain of the original trauma compounds with each loss: relationships, jobs, motivation to participate in activities you used to enjoy. Perhaps your health has suffered.

Being human is hard. You try to do your best, but it seems you can’t make the progress you want. You might feel stuck or hopeless. Negative thoughts and difficult emotions can be overwhelming and they can steal your joy and motivation. Whether you are experiencing loss, relationship struggles, excessive worry, or despair, the pain can be immobilizing. But it's entirely true that wellness and growth are possible for you. Together, we can help you unhook from negative thoughts and connect with what is meaningful to you.

You are your own best expert, knowing yourself better than anyone. I hope to create an accepting, empathic, and validating therapeutic environment. “It is the client that knows what hurts, what directions to go, what problems are crucial, what experiences have been deeply buried.” -Carl Rogers

My way of working as a therapist is centered on the notion that change occurs through relationship, both with ourselves and with other people. Therapy is a collaborative journey toward deeper self understanding, self empowerment and ultimately, healing. My role as your therapist is to come alongside you and provide a safe, non-judgmental and encouraging space to explore what makes you you. My hope is that therapy will be a safe space for you to explore areas in your life where you may be feeling stuck or that you are interested in exploring further.

My concern is to help address the suffering people endure due to the current conflict in their lives as well as any past trauma. Suffering comes in many forms and can be understood as symptoms that negatively affect one's relationships, health, career, personal development and emotional life. I work with individuals to alleviate these difficulties and to deepen an understanding of the root causes in order to ensure ongoing personal satisfaction. This kind of treatment is designed to help identify and redirect conflicts in a person's life which are destructive or prohibit growth, and to liberate positive personal attributes from atrophy and inhibition.

Does life feel overwhelming or out of control? Do you find yourself repeating the same patterns? Do you feel like you are stuck in anger, anxiety, depression, grief, or mindless thought loops? Do you find yourself numbing yourself with technology, or substances? If you have answered yes to any of these questions therapy might be right for you. I believe that you have everything you need inside to heal and overcome. From our first session on you will learn tools to support your growth. It’s an honor for me to be a part of my clients’ healing journey. You are not alone.

Thanks for visiting my page. I’m taking new clients for teletherapy appointments and have availability in the mornings (between 6AM - 1PM). I can work with most insurance companies and self-pay but unfortunately cannot accept anyone covered by MT Medicaid.
