Therapists in Montana

Hello! Thank you for considering my practice. I'm committed to providing a welcoming and safe atmosphere for healing and growth. My therapeutic foundation is relationship and attachment based (childhood through adulthood and life transitions.) I have 16 years in the Missoula community providing therapy to adults, children, and families. My experience includes helping clients heal trauma, implementing practical skills for managing distress, and helping individuals understand personal attachment patterns and develop secure relating (improved relationships). I also provide equine facilitated psychotherapy sessions from Spring to Fall.

I have an inclusive practice where I care for clients presenting with diverse issues. These include elderly, adults, young adults, youth, and families. In my 30+ years of experience, I have worked in a variety of settings engaging in diverse practice using an eclectic approach with individualized interventions. I believe that individuals have the ability to heal and grow within the context of relationships. I emphasize a framework of building a strong relationship of trust and safety.

You will find me to be client focused offering a safe, confidential place to address and work through your personal problems/issues. Clients find me easy to talk to and non-judgmental. You get to set your goals and pace for therapy. My 25 years of experience working with victims of abuse and trauma, adoptive families, depression, anxiety, grief, behavioral and emotional problems, parenting issues, relationship problems, and too many other issues to list gives me vast resources to help you grow. It would be an honor to work with you.

Life is unpredictable with many challenges and changes that occur to us all. Some changes are simply difficult to transition and manage. No one has to do it alone. Connecting with a trained therapist is not only helpful and comforting it's often necessary. By offering a warm, respectful, and non-judgmental environment, I offer support and guide my clients through their unique experiences in order to achieve a state of mind beyond the pain and difficulty.Contact me If you're looking for support and guidance through life's challenges or simply seeking to improve the quality of your life.

Looking for a therapist can be difficult, finding one that is good fit can be even harder. I am from the Flathead Valley, I grew up here and I am as real as it gets.

I am an Emotionally Focused trained therapist, the gold standard when treating marriage, couples and family, and relationships in general. Experiencing anxiety, panic attacks, racing thoughts, PTSD, depression, childhood and adulthood trauma, perinatal and postpartum issues, the loss of a loved one or a pet? I can help!

With experience in outpatient, inpatient, and school settings, I combine my clinical experience with my genuine love of getting to know people.

My name is Jessica Bozman and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I am strongly devoted to cultivating human connection by focusing on personal strengths. This helps foster a renewed sense of hope by emphasizing the holistic individual. I have focused my practice on working with adults and their inner child from all cultures and backgrounds. I am passionate about working with individuals conflicted with natural effects stemming from past trauma. Our attachment to this world and our connection with others is cultivated during childhood.

Providing quality, flexible services to communities in Montana and Wyoming is at the forefront of my goals. I've worked in a variety of settings and levels of care including residential treatment facilities, therapeutic group homes, day treatment programs, mental health centers, community based services, school based services, in-home services, as a mentor and in a private practice. I meet with individuals, families or couples where they are at in the process of change. I encourage them to have a willingness to work on the issues they are facing. I believe in individualized treatment for all people.

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 thirteen 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. Trust is everything.

I have extensive experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families. My approach is varied depending upon the needs of clients.

Throughout our lives we may encounter painful, traumatic, or difficult scenarios that leave us feeling hopeless or stuck. I believe every person has a resiliency and strength to pull from to achieve an enjoyable and fulfilling life. Sometimes we need outside support to tap into our full potential and to overcome challenges. My background includes addressing struggles related to anxiety, depression, PTSD, oppositional defiant disorder, bipolar disorder, adjustment difficulties, trauma, and more.

Which path you choose will either allow you to experience peace and contentment or leave you feeling so overwhelmed as you struggle with feelings of frustration, doubt, anger, sadness, anxiety, shame, guilt, fear, or hopelessness. You are not broken, in need of fixing. Instead, you are deeply hurt and in need of care. Identifying some of these emotions may make you unsure what to do next. Rest assured, you are not alone. Many have felt the same but have found more efficient ways to heal through seeking help in the search for the cause.

Do you feel overwhelmed or are you having difficulty focusing? Are you less motivated at work or losing interest in activities that you found enjoyable? Distraction on the job, insomnia or sleeping too much, or withdrawing from family are signs that you may need help managing anxiety and stress. In therapy, you can expect to build coping skills that can help you feel calmer and more in control of your emotions. We will provide tools to help you enjoy and succeed as a professional, as a parent, and in your relationships. Parenting, marriage, career success, and balancing them are all hard. I am looking forward to helping!
