Integrative Therapists in Billings, MT

I work with those motivated to self understanding, growth and positive change. Life often throws us out of balance creating adverse symptoms, such as grief, depression, anxiety. Perhaps, you have a history of trauma that continues to effect you in life, work, or relationships. Or there is tension in your family system, marriage, relationships, and/or career. Whatever it is that "isn't working" there is a way to move through it... sometimes we just need a little guidance and extra support. I am that guidance and support, to lead you into a state a mind-body-soul balance.

Everybody has something they're uniquely capable of. Life is challenging and we all struggle; whether it's with relationships, self-doubt, trauma, careers, or all of the above. Those adversities shape our strengths and add to our uniqueness when we develop the skills and awareness to cope, challenge, and overcome. Sometimes we lose the motivation or support along the way and feel stuck in the isolation, afraid of vulnerability, and unsure about reaching out. Strength is in the hope for healing, the resilience to overcome, and starts with vulnerability.

I have immediate virtual appts. to help with life & Addiction, OCD, and Trauma. I am currently a Master's student in the last portion of my training for my degree. Don't let that scare you, I come with many years of experience in supporting folx with mental health concerns including trauma and the impact of PTSD. As a Montana therapist, I work with people in rural areas and understanding the nuances of the challenges faced in taking care of your mental health, that is why I am proud to be part of a sliding scale program at my internship. Let's chat and see how I can help you focus on what's important. I serve Montana and Colorado.

I believe the most important relationship we have in this life is with ourselves. Therapy can offer us a deeper understanding and connection with ourselves. Learning to love ourselves is a difficult process and is also very transformative and healing. I like to approach therapy with the ideas of helping a client develop a safe and trusting relationship with themself and to also approach themself with curiosity and compassion. I believe in the healing power of our minds and bodies and love to help clients learn how to cultivate this for themselves.

My focus is above all to offer therapy which empowers individuals. This starts with genuinely respecting your autonomy and right to choose your own path. Whether you're getting by "good enough" in your life but still find yourself discontent and aren't sure why, or you're dealing with mental illness (e.g., anxiety, depression, trauma) which is beginning to unravel your relationships and your life. You may seek short-term symptom relief, and this will always be respected, on the other hand, you may choose to dive deeper to clarify and work on the root of a reoccurring problem. Either way, I'm here to help.

We have an innate need to be in relationship. It is the very foundation of what it is to be human. We need to experience love, reciprocity and fulfillment. A healthy relationship considers the needs of others, focuses on patience and kindness, maintains honesty and trustworthiness and is nurturing. I'm a therapist who works at helping my clients restore love and trust within their identity and among relationships by essentially helping them become their own therapist. Everyone experiences violations in relationships and it's when we're without a restoration process that we continue feeling pain.

I feel that everyone has a need for counseling at some point in life. Just as we have physical health, we have mental and emotional health. If we check in with mental and emotional health needs during difficulties, learning challenges or traumas, we can sustain our overall mental and physical health. Yes, they do go together! I enjoy working with clients who are open to new pathways and perspectives.

Congratulations for reaching out! You are not alone. Your step of seeking therapy and recovery - it sure isn't easy. I truly hope that I can relieve some of that...

I focus on what is in front of me and not "what could be." My approach is a holistic one; I look at the whole person, including any underlying medical concerns, in order to help you identify your basic core self. Remember, you are brave for making the first step - reach out!
