CHIP | Children's Program Therapists in Belgrade, MT

I work with clients that are struggling with various issues. I have experience working with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, interpersonal issues, anger episodes, and various other presentations. I also offer supervision for interns and pre-licensed professsionals.

Do you ever feel like your young child doesn't listen to you, or they do the opposite of what you ask them to do? Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) is an evidence-based therapy to promote attachment using positive attention strategies to guide behaviors, while helping caregivers to provide consistent and predictable consequences when necessary. I work with biological parents, foster and adoptive families, and other caregivers including extended family. We also provide individual therapy to address challenges in parenting, and Circle of Security parenting sessions.

Understanding your young child's needs can be confusing and draining -- I offer ways to bring more joy and less stress to you and your child. You are an essential & cherished part of your child's therapy. As a guide in your relationship, I can help you to: explore what your child is communicating; understand his/her perception; read his/her cues; support strong emotions and behaviors; teach him/her how to cope; integrate past difficulties; heal; learn new parenting skills; and connect more deeply. We'll work together through the power of play, activities, discussion, reflection, modeling, skill development, and body awareness.

We all need to feel heard, valued and respected. But, what happens when our own stress level or that of our children becomes more than we can manage? When ideal communication goes out the window, and we feel frustrated and at a loss? I work therapeutically with you and your child to discover the reasons behind your child's behavior and teach you the skills necessary to restore balance. Whether you or your child are experiencing the effects of divorce, depression, anxiety, oppositional acting out or ADHD, I can help by identifying the cause and offering solutions.

I work with children, adolescents and adults with a curiosity about how we can live more connected and meaningful lives. Often the ways we have learned to adapt to our world (or world view) is no longer effective or relevant. I seek to help create deeper awareness and insight into underlying motives, defenses, and desires. Together we explore patterns that contribute to struggles and dissonance in day to day life.

If you, an adolescent child or an adult family member is frustrated, hurting, fearful, discouraged or just at wits end, I bring respect, curiosity and a healing approach to help you. Together we will find ways to cope with and overcome the stresses, pains, obstacles and trauma of life. Your peace of mind is worth it. From personal pain, relationships, addiction and motivation to work-related issues, my approach to your needs focuses on your experiences, strengths and goals. My therapeutic approach is compassionate, collaborative, positive and direct. We can explore your needs & goals during an initial no-charge consultation session.

Hello, I'm Molly, owner and lead clinician at Bozeman Supportive Counseling (BSC). At BSC, we value the individual experiences of each person we work with and welcome all genders, races, religions, abilities, and sexual orientations. We all can create meaning in our lives, and our role as your clinician is to stand side by side with you as you explore what that means for you. At BSC, we work with people interested in exploring their history and how this impacts the life they live today or want to live in the future.

NO CURRENT OPENINGS "If you never heal from what hurt you, you will bleed on people who didn't cut you." Mental health is just as important as physical health and yet we find often ourselves lacking in self care and emotional attention. Maybe you find yourself lashing out at loved ones, or having difficulties communicating effectively within relationships. Maybe you have inner doubts or shame that you have never been able to share in a safe and supportive setting. Maybe you are sick of constantly feeling depressed or anxious with no apparent cause and with minimal hope of change.

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.

A few daytime appointments available in April. Imagine a world where growing up was easy and adulting was just as simple? There would be no peer relationship struggles, everyone had great self-esteem, angelic behaviors abounded, and traumatic life events never occurred. Heck, even our work and home lives were a breeze, we all had uncomplicated relationships, and mental health concerns did not exist. Unfortunately, we do face hard things. Therapy is a way to get help, guidance, and relief as you walk through the daily challenges of life. Are you ready for change? I bet you are!

Do you feel overwhelmed by waves of anxiety, alone in your depression, or worried about the future? You want things to change but don’t know where to start or if change is even possible. Whatever your reason for seeking support, I am committed to providing a judgment-free environment where you can explore experiences, gain insight, and strengthen emotional regulation. Your safety, trust, and comfort are top priorities.

What would it be like to be able to say no and not have it come with a side of guilt? A life where you only say yes to the tasks, responsibilities, and people that matter most to you? I’ve been there and I can help. I work to help people who struggle to set healthy boundaries with people in their lives, or often need to feel angry or frustrated before they are able to say “no”. This process of learning often feels difficult and one of my passions is helping people identify what is keeping them stuck in the old patterns, discover what they value and who they want to be, then commit to achieving a life that feels worth living.

It can be easy to lose track of our balance and priorities; many of us spend a lot of our energy tending to others, making sure those we love are okay- but we neglect to check in with ourselves. This can leave us feeling empty, lost, hopeless, and overwhelmed. Clients I work with are seeking balance and clarity. Helping people return to where they feel most like themselves is an amazing process, and I'm proud I can help.

My goal is to provide space and empathy for your life. My experience has been built in transitions including grief, chronic illness, aging, caregiving stress, and end-of-life. I feel strongly that each client is their own expert to their own journey and that my role as a therapist is to meet the client where they are at in that story and establish a safe relationship of listening without judgement. I also have worked with adolescents and adults dealing with depression, anxiety and other adjustment-based needs.

Let's be honest, most of us wouldn't go back to our adolescent years even if someone paid us to do so. Growing up is hard and life throws a lot at children, teens, and young adults. It is not uncommon to feel many conflicting ways about adolescence (and often times many conflicting ways at once). The things we face as we grow up impact our ability to engage, succeed, and feel accepted in our family life, our friend and peer circles, and in our academic sphere. It is my distinct honor to work with adolescents as they navigate some of the toughest years of life.

The teenage years can be really tough on teens AND their parents. Changes happen that can throw their emotions on a rollercoaster -- sadness, worry or anger can take over. Friends can push a teen toward dangerous choices. Add on the stress of high school, early romantic relationships, working towards independence, and there are all sorts of places that a teenager can struggle. It takes a special sort of counselor to work with a teen. Someone who is serious and kind when they struggle, but keeps a sense of humor, wonder and joy that can connect with them past those struggles.
