Therapists in Montana

It is my sincere honor to work with every person who walks through my office doors. It takes courage and strength to overcome the stigma and doubt that can come with entering therapy. The fundamental basis of my work begins with a genuine and authentic relationship with my clients. I have found that over time this serves as a means to jointly solve the problems in your life, and further, to achieve your highest possible dreams. If you find it difficult to make the initial leap into therapy, I'd like to help. Schedule a consultation with me today.

My approach is empathic, direct, and thoughtful. Given I have a wide background in my training and experience, I adapt my therapeutic approach to your needs. I find that effective therapy is a collaborative approach where we work together to understand your concerns, their origins, and most importantly what can be done to bring about both the internal and behavioral changes that lead to more satisfaction and fulfillment in life . My goal in therapy is to help integrate your shame and vulnerabilities into a healthy identity grounded in self-esteem, pride, and resiliency.

Talking about our struggles in life can be extremely difficult and we often suffer in silence. Silence can lead to feeling angry, depressed, anxious, emotionally numb or even suicidal. You may find yourself often wondering "Why can't I ever be happy?" or "What is wrong with me?" Have you tried traditional "talk therapy" and find yourself still struggling? Often, your current life struggles can be the result of previous stressful/traumatic incidents you have experienced. I am specialty trained in specialized techniques such as Eye Movement and Desensitization (EMDR) and can help you overcome negative self-talk and trauma.

I am committed to meeting YOUR needs! It is an incredibly brave thing to admit when we are experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, are vulnerable, stuck, or just want someone to listen. When you work with Bridges, you are in a safe space where you will not be judged! Children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families are all welcome at Bridges. I offer therapies to suit every need, and I enjoy working with people who are ready for change. Bridges offers HIPAA compliant Telemedicine, therefore serving ALL MT communities.

Helping empower people to live joyful, abundant peace-filled lives, while enjoying the gift of life given me by God forms the purpose and drives the mission of my ministry as a therapist. The purpose of Heart and Hand Center is to alleviate suffering that comes to people of all ages as a result of trauma, grief, loss, injury, accidents, divorce, family dysfunction, war, poverty, addictions, death, and disease. We use a healing approach combining compassion and care with expressive arts therapy, equine assisted psychotherapy, and spirituality to address root causes of emotional, behavioral, and psychological problems.

Human development is a lifelong process, where each moment of life, every human being is in a state of personal evolution. By taking consideration of the bio-psycho-social, spiritual, and cultural factors that shape us, clients provide a unique perspective into their identity, as well as finding their place in the world. When events in life cause feelings of anxiety, extreme sadness, feeling stuck, or overwhelm it may become necessary to retrace, or reprocess these moments to develop resolution.

Choosing a therapist can be an apprehensive endeavor, and my aim is to ensure your comfort throughout the process. I provide a free 15-minute consultation to evaluate if our compatibility aligns for the therapeutic journey and to address administrative matters such as fees and scheduling. Regardless of whether you opt for my services or another therapist's, I sincerely hope you find the individual best suited to meet your requirements. During challenging times, guidance and a sense of being understood can provide solace. I advocate for a non-judgmental environment that fosters support and safety.

I'm a psychologist and psychotherapist providing in person therapy to clients in Bozeman, Montana and online video counseling. I specialize in mind-body medicine, mindfulness, body-centered therapies, and interpersonal, psychodynamic psychotherapy that integrates the latest findings in developmental and cognitive science. I work with people struggling with a broad range of emotional, behavioral and medical issues to help them develop awareness of their internal states, more effectively work with their emotions, lessen their stress response, improve coping skills and develop and improve their immune function.
