Attachment-based Therapists in 59911

We are a group of therapists focused on helping children, teens, and adults break through the challenges preventing them from living their best lives.

My joy and my passion are helping women discover how much is possible when they start loving and accepting themselves. When you love and accept yourself – light side/dark side – with all of your imperfections, that’s when things really start to move and shift. It is the key that opens the door to the wisdom and strength that is already inside of you. When you are disconnected from your love for yourself, life is scary. How will I cope? Or, avoid these uncomfortable feelings? Disconnection often shows up as anxiety, depression, anger, food issues, stress, people pleasing, etc. Are you ready to create some long lasting peace?

I work with children, teens and adults across the lifespan providing individual, couples and family therapy, psychological assessment and consultation. My overall mission is to help clients to 1) understand, articulate, and negotiate their particular challenges such that they can cope and overcome; and 2) identify and achieve their personal goals and live congruently with their values and aspirations. I have worked in private, school and medical settings in urban and rural parts of the country including Los Angeles, Chicago, Arizona and Indiana. I am happy to offer services in my new adopted home, Northwest Montana.

I approach every client with concern for immediate difficulties and symptoms, but also believe that one of the central tasks of therapy is to gain self knowledge and understanding. This might include acknowledging emotion, understanding avoidance, and identifying behavioral and relationship patterns. Research studies have demonstrated that focusing on relationships (past and present) increases the likelihood that therapeutic work will be effective.

In times when feelings of depression, anxiety, and loneliness become overwhelming, it's natural to experience a sense of hopelessness. Relationships, at times, may contribute to feelings of unhappiness as well. Within the therapeutic setting, we will collaboratively address these challenges. Therapy is about self-discovery, encompassing both your past and present. This exploration can lead to a more content and purposeful life. My approach involves assisting clients in comprehending their strengths and challenges and establishing a foundation for achieving their aspirations. Most importantly, is our relationship in creating change.

I have found that children and youth are often struggling to find their voice and identity in a world they have little control of. This can often present in a variety of ways including, negative behaviors at home or at school, depressed and anxious moods, difficulty communicating their needs, self-harming tendencies, and so much more.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, haunted by the shadows of childhood trauma, or weighed down by the heavy burden of grief and loss? If so, you don't have to face these challenges alone. I'm here to provide you with a respectful, accepting, and safe space where your healing journey can begin. I'm have a passion for helping individuals find their way through life's most trying moments. My journey into this profession was fueled by a deep desire to make a positive impact on the lives of those who are struggling. I believe that healing is not a destination but a courageous journey, and I'm honored to walk beside you on that path
