American Sign Language (ASL) Therapists in Montana

I was born and raised in southeastern Montana, lived in Seattle for fifteen years, and returned to be closer to family. I am a survivor of trauma, have worked as a special education teacher in Seattle for twelve years, and have worked as a Licensed Psychotherapist and Licensed Addictions Counselor in Billings since 2004. My passions are Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), people with special needs, grief/loss, the elderly, veterans, and helping people in crisis in general. I understand how addiction impacts people in crises. I specialize in improving communication. I inform my practice with brain research. Hope is everything.

Let's face it, life is messy! At some point, we all face the unexpected, whether it be the loss of someone important, a relationship, a job, financial struggles, pain and sickness, or any of the other things that come our way, but we certainly may not choose! It is helpful to have someone to talk to and to offer a listening ear and perhaps some different perspectives during those times. I hope to provide those things to my clients, as well as utilizing my experience and training to help others through the tough times. I will meet you where you are at and help you find where you would like to be. 2 Corinthians 1:4

My goal is to provide a safe and supportive environment in order for individuals, couples, and families to find a way through their difficulties. I use a collaborative client-centered approach and focus on providing a safe haven in which the client(s) can begin the healing journey.
