Therapists in Montana City, MT

I enjoy working with individuals (young adults and older adults). Depression, anxiety, grief, life changes/crises, developmental growth, attachment, relational issues, adverse spiritual and religious experiences, and other concerns are my areas of focus. I am open to all faith traditions. In addition to being a licensed professional counselor, I am also an ordained Interfaith Minister (2006). I completed the training on religious abuse/trauma through the Global Center for Religious Research group and “Understanding Cults: A Foundational Course for Clinicians” through the Freedom of Mind Resource Center.

I specialize in working with adults as they navigate life transitions and stressors. My approach is warm, client centered and relational, with the intent to walk alongside a person during the process of transition and change. My work facilitates a deepening of understanding of self, to support people in accepting who they are and knowing that they matter. My treatment philosophy is rooted in person-centered, strength-based, trauma-informed care, harm reduction, systems theory, and social justice.

My name is Aimee Lang (previously Volkman), and I am a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC). I believe each individual is unique, and views the world through an individualistic lens- given their experiences. I feel everyone deserves the opportunity to be heard. It takes a lot of courage to take a step towards enhancing ones well-being. Often, people feel lost and overwhelmed in their past and current struggles. I have a varied clinical background focused on working with children, adults and families who are struggling with life changes, anxiety, depression, PTSD, divorce, autism, attachment and existential crisis.

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.

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.

My experience is working with late teens, young adults, adults, and couples who are experiencing emotional distress from past and/or current struggles. My hope is for us to build a compassionate and brave space together, so that you can feel safe sharing and exploring your story. Our work will not only uncover the barriers to the growth and fulfillment that you deserve, but also will help you experience hope and healing through healthier relationships with self and others.

Are you ready to transform your relationship with life? Are you feeling confused, anxious, or having difficulty finding your happiness in the midst of life's stressors? We all have problems, habits and "quirks" of personality and wonder sometimes when life gets rough, whether we need therapy or if it would be a good option. When life is getting on top of you, when you begin to feel strong emotions that you didn't know that you had, when you feel lost or hopeless or just want to reach your full potential, then give yourself a chance to seek a new solution. I can help. I am Gottman Level II and EMDR trained.

Hi there. "All of You is Welcome Here". You can Not-Want-To-Come-In for therapy & still give me a call. Your curiosity & your skepticism are welcome. This is often the root of conflict for us, right? There is a part of us that is curious, open to change. Yet as we strive to live in concert with our beliefs & values with high hopes to evolve, to be seen, known & understood some illusive, habituated roadblocks reappear. Welcome to the human dilemma. The good news: we can work with ourselves. Support is necessary from time to time. That's natural (like you).

Hi - Welcome to ONLINE counseling. I have a unique practice that supports people from all over Montana --- after 15 years of seeing couples and individuals in person in my Bozeman office, I'm now working exclusively with individuals online. I have had the honor of helping hundreds of Montanans conquer their depression or anxiety, regain their confidence, improve their communication skills, renew their relationship by working on themselves ... and to get back to being the person they want to be. I think you'll be surprised at how comfortable online therapy feels - it's just like sitting in the same room.

After more than a decade of working with individuals and families, I find most people walking through my door simply want to be happier and have more love in their lives. For those new to therapy, know that together we will explore the changes you are looking for in your life. Therapy is a collaborative effort and you are driving the process. While we cannot change what has happened in our past, we can intentionally take steps toward creating a more meaningful and satisfying present. We can transform pain into wisdom. My role is to support you in traveling your unique path through that transformation.

Ever think: "How did I end up here?" or "I never imagined {life event} would happen to me!" You are not alone! We can all relate to these sentiments. Most people do not end up in therapy because circumstances are unicorns and rainbows. Are you struggling with loss, or making meaning out of events that have left you feeling uncertain, shaken, in agony? Do you feel like you are starring in a scene from the film Ground Hog Day, where life is a series of frustrating, repeating events? You can make a successful transition to break this cycle, whatever that personal change is. You will get a sense of control back. A little Zen. Some hope.

Counseling is a space used to move into deeper connection with yourself and to release old patterns of being that no longer serve you. I believe when you gain self-regulation skills, self-awareness, and self-acceptance, then you can create the change you seek and experience more freedom/ease. My hope is that you feel safe and fully accepted in my presence so you can explore the more painful parts of your life and honor your strengths. My approach to counseling is client driven and collaborative. I use mindfulness, somatic-based, culturally sensitive, and trauma-informed interventions with clients.

I invite adults and adolescents into my private practice. I have experience working with individuals that have experienced trauma, abuse, suicidal ideation, depression, anxiety, attachment disorders, and struggle to maintain relationships with family members and others. I am very knowledgeable in human development and can work with adult family members that are struggling with children's/ family behaviors at home and are seeking a positive change in daily life. I focus on helping client's find the personalized emotional regulation and self-care techniques that actually work for your individualized needs.

—Accepting Clients— Oftentimes we minimize our own experiences and believe we are not worthy of someone else’s time and energy, limiting our capacity in relationships. I sincerely believe all individuals have the capacity for authenticity, mutuality, and growth-producing connection. These experiences can flourish by providing a relationship that is safe, compassionate, and empowering. It is my hope to cultivate those feelings within counseling to take beyond the room. Counseling can help you understand the meaning you make of experiences, past and present, in your life and engage in a deeper relationship with yourself and others.
