Men's Issues Therapists in Billings, MT

Accepting New Clients! Do you have concerns or worries you have difficulty resolving? Is your child struggling with their feelings and you're seeing new behaviors? Do you have past life events which seem to linger and cannot resolve on their own? I can help you with that! You'd benefit from working with an experienced therapist who has worked with many concerns including depression, anxiety, marital issues, blended/adoptive families and behavioural issues. I am trained in EMDR therapy and other models of treatment to help address your concerns. I am located in MT but provide tele-health therapy across MT and ND.

I like to work with people who want to become the best versions of themselves. Many clients I've worked with struggle with depression and/or anxiety and want to feel better. Their specific symptoms seem to cause them significant problems in one or more areas of their lives. Most people want to reduce their symptoms that are causing issues. My goal is to treat each client with the dignity, respect, and love they deserve as human beings by accepting and working with them exactly where they are in their life.

Do you find yourself in many high conflict situations at home, work, and in the community? Military, educational, and life experiences have resulted in my deep knowledge base for working with adults who've experienced trauma and stress. I have advanced training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), Sensory Motor Arousal Regulation Therapy (SMART), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). These modalities assist in providing well-rounded counseling services for those with PTSD, Anxiety, Depression, relationship, career, parenting, and family issues.

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.

I believe life is like a hiking trail, it has highs and lows. There are complexities in people, places and things. Life can be easy or can be difficult and can require tools and equipment to keep moving. It can be easy to feel overwhelmed and outmatched. I like to think of therapy as one of the tools that can help navigate the trail. As a practicioner I like to see myself like a hiking guide. I want to walk with you on the trail, equip you with the right tools, and empower you to move confidently through the ups and downs of life.

First generation descendant of the Blackfeet Tribe, I have over 20 years of experience in the therapeutic world. I kicked off my career as a consumer to Vocational Rehabilitation in 1996 after a motor vehicle accident that resulted in a spinal cord injury.

I worked for Youth Dynamics Inc as a Therapeutic Group Home youth therapist. Currently, I am a private therapist providing a wide range of therapy services to adults, teens, and youth, including equine assisted therapy.

I am an art therapist, passionate and dedicated, on a transformative journey to help neurodivergent, LGBTQ+, and grieving teens and adults discover their authentic selves through the power of art therapy. I have a deep understanding of the complexities and nuances of identity and experience, and I create a sanctuary where art becomes the language of the soul-a space where colors, textures, and shapes transcend verbal communication. By blending artistic creation with therapeutic techniques, I offer a unique pathway for healing and self-discovery encouraging each person to embrace their true essence amidst life's challenges.

My work with individuals and their families is based on a life time of personal and family experience learning to live with serious mental illness. I have spent much of my adult life involved in research through the National Institute of Mental Health, advocating for families and individuals through the National Alliance on Mental Illness and working with the most vulnerable populations through the Mental Health Center PACT program. I believe that everyone is capable of meaningful recovery through the pursuit of education, healing, and personal growth.

Life is hard. Sometimes it throws things at you that you have trouble handling alone.

If that sounds like something that would help you, please reach out!

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 believe the benefits of a healthy therapeutic relationship can be a powerful tool in growing into the person we want to be in our lives. Addressing past traumas, developing strategies for coping, and identifying insight into challenging situations can all be helpful parts of therapy. As a person-centered therapist, I seek to create a safe and non judgmental space allowing for collaboration. Together we can explore and identify tools and techniques that empower you to live a more fulfilling life.

I work with individuals and families with a range of concerns, such as anxiety, depression, grief, mediation, and relationship issues.
